To start with my mother was a seamstress and a very good one at that. I never really sewed with her though, I was a rebellious teenager that thought everything parents did was uber uncool. She passed away when I was sixteen and I never much thought about sewing for quite a time after that. I did however, inherit her sewing machine a Kenmore 30 stitch number with all the bits and bobs you could dream of. I still barely know how to use it but I’ve come a long way since September 2008. I still think of how impressed my Mom would be if she could see all of the great things I’ve made with her tools and inherited talent.
