Thirteen Things about sewing, that I enjoy
1…. I love fabric stores! There are so many beautiful fabrics, it can be overwhelming, but I like finding a fabric that I can create something special out of, knowing it’s a one of a kind item.
2…. I love fabric! Ditto what I said before, just can’t have enough fabric!
3…. I love to sew with my sisters and my mom. We get together with our sewing machines when we can and we just create. It’s fun because we all help each other out when we’re trying something new.
4…. I love taking sewing classes to learn new things. It’s a great way to learn new sewing techniques.
5…. I love meeting people that love to sew.
6…. I love buying thread. Have you SEEN how many colors of thread are available?!
7…. I love sewing supplies. If you can think of it, it probably exists.
8…. I love my sewing machine. I do wish it had a few more decorative stitches, but hey, it does embroider, so I’m not complaining!
9…. I love carrying a bag I’ve made and having someone ask me where I bought it.
10… I love that my daughter likes me to make her Halloween costumes, they’re more original and they look better than those cheapy ones at the store. She likes picking out the fabrics for those too.
11… I love showing my daughter how to do things on my machine.
12… I love that I’m finally learning to make a quilt. My mom is an avid, and excellent, quilter. I have not followed in those footsteps, but I am learning a little bit at a time, and who knows, maybe I’ll be able to work on a quilt with her someday!
13… Finally, I love that my machine embroiders. I program it, turn it on, and let it run. I’m typing this as my machine is embroidering a t-shirt now.
