I love to sew because it gives a sense of accomplishment with each completed project. I sew for my grandchildren and love to see their pleasure with the things that I do for them. I am self-taught and with each project, I seem to learn something new.

I have loved sewing since my Grandmother taught me to sew as a young girl. I was sewing doll clothes and quilts then and now I enjoy Cinnamon’s Liberty Jane patterns! I try to sew a little (or a lot!) everyday. I love being creative and it makes me happy to see my finished creations. I would love to win Cinnamon’s new book!

I LOVE fabric, I love designing doll clothes. I have been sewing for 40 years. Dolls have been in my family dating back to the 1800’s. I took Cinnamon’s online class, it was a blast! Her idea’s are just incredible. Her clothes make me keep sewing. :-)

Sewing is a challenge is something that you can have a pride for,or be proud of. It is not just a work of art, it is a work of mind. I love sewing because it makes me proud of myself. I’m happy to have learned to sew. Sewing is something to look forward to. Something to do for the rest of your life.
