Made my maternity clothes, curtain, calico appliance covers (remember those?) stuff for the nursery and then I gave it up for the most part. I can sew when I need to but don't enjoy it. Some of us are meant to do OTHER Things! <br /><br />That's my story and I am sticking to it!

Mom taught me to sew at age 6 and I've sewn at some machine or another ever since. Sister...bless her heart...well, she's had me to make everthing for her. I'm a quilter and 'FeedSack' caught my eye on 'My Vintage Studio'. I've collected and quilted with feedsacks and 1930's reproductions and originals forever. Enjoyed your all of your blog and am now a follower.

That is one thing we all are good at. I don't know where I got the sewing bug - none of the women in my life sewed at all. I can remember my grandmother made some aprons but there were no quilters, knitters, crocheters, no one embroidered - don't know where I got my love for thread and needle. I also made clothes for my daughter and me and lots of square dance dresses over the years. But we all have different things that we love to do and are good at and that's what makes the world go round!! ;-) CarolFunoldhaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484311080018327229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5298281273012420976.post-58381782396314175282009-10-08T20:19:11.746-07:002009-10-08T20:19:11.746-07:00This hysterical.

If I wanted a Halloween image and I wanted it chartoonish I would good animated halloween gif and look at the images on google. If I wanted something to move I would look at the gif. If you just want still pictures with no movement you just look up images or clipart. If you want a picture of a woman sewing just type in woman sewing gif or animated woman sewing gif this might bring up a few, I found a few but not sure what style you are looking for. When you find the image you are looking for right click and save on your computer. Then you have a picture. Hope this helped.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />HediAbatevintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10292748128225428200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5298281273012420976.post-59256706110293963082009-10-08T16:19:07.077-07:002009-10-08T16:19:07.077-07:00Love your story....being a retired seamstress...No...Love your story....being a retired seamstress...No more dressmaking for me either...sometimes I felt like I dressed a nation..<br />Julia ♥Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15207957464039686839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5298281273012420976.post-62672249904283199102009-10-08T15:30:19.430-07:002009-10-08T15:30:19.430-07:00What a great memory.
