as in making clothes and whatnot? I was in Walmart's Fabric dept today and got to looking at the pattern books. I actually bought 2! LOL
Hopefully I can find as wonderful a board as this one for sewing!

I love to sew but not for me. I used to and never really like what I made! But I loved making little clothes for my boys.
I also love making pillows and stuff like that :D

I sew far better than I quilt. I've made just about everything there is to make from wedding dresses to my son's suits, drapes to fire retardant racing suits, winter coats to bathing suits, etc. The only sewing I have to currently is a new robe for me.

I used to love sewing for my kids. I have a hard time fitting myself though.

I make most of my own shirts--from fun cotton quilt fabrics.

I used to make clothes. Now I make dolls, doll clothes and stuffed animals. I love quilting now so I do all of them. I really don't like making clothes for little dolls 18" and under so I create my own patterns and make the clothes as a part of the doll. I hope you can find a sew sew board that is as great as this one is for quilting. :)
