I was in 4H from the time I was 9 until I was 18. Every year I had to sew a piece of clothing. I hated it! Each project was harder as the years went by. I have had a sewing machine since I was a kid. A few years ago my mom showed me some fabric that she was receiving on a monthly basis through a fat quarter club of the month. I thought hmm that is interesting. Well needless to say I decided to to join one of those clubs myself and started to receive fabric. Started looking on ebay for fabric and became addicted very quickly. I love sewing now. I am so thankful that my mom made me sew all those years.
