I have loved sewing all my life. From having to make my own nice clothes as a teenager to clothing my daughters as they grew up and their wedding dresses and bridesmaid dresses, grandchildren coordinating outfits and then doll clothes and now I am making quilts for family members. What a wonderful life sewing has given me!!

My favorite thing about sewing is that I still can! Learning to sew as a small child and continuing it all my life grants me the blessing of having those skills and abilities firmly implanted in my brain, I don’t lose them as I age like so many other things. I remember how to sew and when my body and mind can no longer do anything else, I can still learn something new from Cinnamon and try it out! Sewing keeps me relevant in a changing world and the joy these handmade things bring to everyone who receives them fills me with love, peace and purpose. Creativity – the best medicine I’ve found!

I love sewing, from the pinning (if you don’t pin properly, you may as well not bother), to the cutting (I always hesitate and take a deep breath when I cut, ( whether it’s something simple or something that challenges my abilities.)
The pleasure I have and that I give to the person for whom the item was created makes me tingle from head to toes. Those smiles and the “You actually MADE this?” oohs and aahs are such a happy moment.
And teaching my grandhcildren the basics of sewing, even though it’s usually for those 19" dolls gives me a feeling of being “over the hill”.
Sewing gives me pleasure to see the pleasure of my family and friends who receive the handmade gifts.

My favorite thing about sewing is that it allows me the ultimate creativity. I can use any fabric, modify patterns so that it’s different even from the original pattern. In the past, I have make jogging suits for 10 kids for Christmas(my kids and nieces and nephews) – all matching and sized correctly for the ‘tall, skinny’, ‘short and slightly overweight’ kids. An exercise in mass production!

I love to sew because I can make things the way I want them. I like pockets in all my pants and jackets. I sew most of my clothes, even coats. Sewing is such an art form. I think you have to have patience and it certainly keeps your mind active. I’ve always had an interest in dolls and now I buy them from thrift stores, clean them up and sew clothes for them. I’ve given some away to little girls already and hope to do more.
