I remember making clothes for my dolls when I was 8 or 9. Then I learned embroidery but never got serious about sewing again until my late teens. I made clothes for my two girls when they were little and dressed them alike until that wasn't "cool" anymore. Then I learned to cross stitch and that is still my passion. Now that I am retired, I do a little bit of everything when the occasion arises, knitting, crocheting, sewing, cross stitch and then lately I have started to quilt. Can't just sit and do nothing.
