I am trying to learn auto upholstery and need to learn how to sew, so I ask my mother who is 84 to teach me. So she shows up at my house with a bag of fabric and says make a quilt. I ask her if she was going to help, she said I just did, gave you something to sew. See you in a week and be finished with the top!

I ask but what do you want it to look like? She said a quilt, duh! She said I have been around her and my grandmother quilting all my life I can do it. Oh and by the way these pieces are from your great nieces baby blankets so don’t mess it up there is no more material.

talking about pressure, I did not have enough material left to make one more square.

it gets better so after she sees the top, she said that looks fine, now I need my driver seat in my van recovered. So I repaired it last week sewed in new panels in the cloth seat and reinstalled.

So I am confused, am I an upholster, quilter or just a man with a 2 sewing machines that will sew whatever someone brings me? Probably the latter. Because I also repaired my wife’s bra my dog chewed the strap into on..

all I know is I enjoy sewing.
