I started teaching myself a few years ago, I don't think my Mum could have taught me until my interest was there anyway. She did however teach me to knit...but I'm still hopeless at it! Ha.<br />That fat quarter of fabric is gorgeous!!

I'm sure you don't want to see me win again.. and I'm on a winning streak... so I'm happy for you to leave my name out of the draw. We all did basic sewing as part of school, so it just sort of grew. My Mum made all our everyday clothes and her sister (a dressmaker), made us a fancy schmancy outfit every birthday and Christmas, always with the ever so wanted twirl factor. <b>Happy Birthday, Mama!!!</b>Pam @Threading My Wayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15990609128028224347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-405836715997521412.post-27455185568641770382012-02-13T13:07:00.479-05:002012-02-13T13:07:00.479-05:00Happy Birthday to your mom!

She used to sew late into the night sewing dresses, skirts, etc., for me and my two sisters. She even sewed my wedding dress and all the bridesmaids' dresses. It wasn't until many years later when I had my own child that I really wanted to learn how to sew. I mostly taught myself but had a lot of help from my mother-in-law. My mom has lost her love for sewing, and my mother-in-law has passed, both of which make me very sad. My plan is to sew until I am no longer able.Lisa Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04164642542188487989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-405836715997521412.post-4168112626712489642012-02-13T10:36:02.158-05:002012-02-13T10:36:02.158-05:00Aren't we blessed to have had such wonderful s...Aren't we blessed to have had such wonderful sewing instructions to send us on our way.
