I was always interested in sewing as a child. My grandmother was a seamstress, my mother and father also sewed. I took a sewing class in home economics in elementary school but never made anything except a pillow and clothes for my dolls. About 2 years ago, I went to bought a sewing machine; I didnt remember how to thread the needle or make a bobbin or anything. I just knew I wanted a sewing machine. It sat for months and finally one day, I went to the fabric store; I didn't know what to get or what I was going to make but i knew I wanted to sew. The salesperson asked if I knew how to sew and i told her I didn't but I believed that I could.

The fabric set for about 8 months and finally, i cut a little piece of fabric and sat down to figure out "how to sew". To my amazement, I remember how to thread the machine and make a bobbin. I sewed a straight line and was so excited. The next week, my boyfriend's mother told me she would help me sew. She was an EXCELLENT teacher and I was making and wearing garments in 2 weeks. It felt like second nature.

It has been about 7 or 8 months since I offically learned to sew. I make most of my clothing and sew for several people. I enjoy it so much. I get excited when i get home and have a chance to sit down and create "art".

Sewing was a dream that has become my passion.

Stunning. The lining looks fantastic against the red. Excellent work! I would definitely purchase a coat like this.

It is a very cute top. I like the detail on the front. Very stylish and fashionable.
