I love sewing because I can express myself. I can mix and match fabric or a pattern and come up with something new and fun. I also love it when people ask, " Hey where did you get that?" It is always fun to respond that, " I made it myself."
I love to sew because I can make the things I see on the internet and I don’t have to pay $30 for an American girl brand outfit.
I learned to sew from my mother and several great-aunts. I love to sew because it relaxes me, it reminds me of my loved ones, and because it allows me to create items for the people I love.
I have been sewing all of my life and I love it, and still learning. Thank you for the chance to win your new book, and wishing you the best on your book.
I love sewing because as a web developer, I don’t make anything that I can hold in my hands. When I’m sewing, I have a finished product that I can touch and is useful to someone in my family.
