I love having such a fun creative outlet, making useful and beautiful things! :)
I love sewing because sewing is an ancient pastime and it will be around for future generations yet to come! Plus, it will allow people connect from generation to generation.
Thank you for the giveaway, Cinnamon! This is fantastic!
It is my therapy. I turn to sewing when life is getting tough or when I need to spend a few minutes away from the frantic pase of life. Congratulations on the book.
I love to sew because, while I am working with fabric, I am in my element. I have always loved fabric and have been making things from it for as long as I can remember. My grandmother did beautiful handwork and taught my mother to sew. She in turn taught me and for that I am forever grateful.
It is sew relaxing and when I make something for someone I love their expression when they get something handmade!
