Sew it is a passion for me, NOTHING can relax me more than sew. I love create things for my kids. It’s one of the things that make me spend time with my daugther. For me NOTHING BETTER THAN SEW!!
I love sewing because it is one of the only things that i am good at! When i sew i feel relaxed and happy. I love your patterns and i have used them (and altered them) to make many different historical and modern outfits
I love sewing! I learned to sew from my grandmother. I have since passed on that knowledge to my sisters and my children, yes, even my sons have sewed projects, what joy to help with 4-H sewing projects. It is so fun to watch new ideas on t.v. shows and now the internet. Sewing is a part of my life and I love sharing it with those who do not yet know the joy and satisfaction of making something for themselves that they can wear or show to others. I would use your book to pass on the fun of sewing to the next generation. My granddaughter is 4 and we can have fun sewing!
I love everything about Cinnamon Miles, Liberty Jane and Pixie Faire..including their patterns and tutorials. Can’t wait to read the book!
You inspired me by making it so easy and understandable, I am 59 and proud of it and I sow with my granddaughter of 10 years.
And we love spending quality time together.
