I had been sewing for quite a lot of time before my first sewing class. I took it for an easy A. The first item I made for 8th grade sewing was a dress. I did button holes for those who couldn't sew. and charges $1 per button hole and button. in 10th grade, I took a sewing course again for an easy A, and coz my mom wouldn't let me sew leather or suede. I did a jacket. in 11th grade, I took a quilting class. the rest is history
