My mom taught me how to sew when I was 2 or 3, so I've been sewing for as long as I can remember.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
By the age of 9 or 10, I knew that I had to cut my own cloth and make my own way.
From about eight years old I was always making things on the sewing machine. Friends would see me making dresses and costumes, and I'd use difficult fabrics such as Lycra and elastic. But you know, my dad was creative and my brother is inventive too.
My mom used to make my costumes when I was little; she sews a lot. One year, I was a bride and I had a big wedding dress and a bouquet. Another year I was a medieval princess with a long teal dress and a veil. It was a little extravagant, but it was cute!
My parents got me a sewing machine for Christmas during my senior year of high school. I made three pieces of clothing and had a fashion show at the end of the year, where we had to wear the clothes that we made. I took it to a whole new level; I made all my friends clothes.
When I was really young, my mum used to make my clothes - I hated that. I liked the way boys dressed - I still do. I wanted to wear what they wore.
I was two years old when my mom put me in mommy and me classes. I always had a lot of energy so it was the perfect fit!
My grandmother knitted me a crochet top when I was 15. I still fit into it and will never give it away.
When I was a little girl you used to learn to sew all the holes in things, darning socks, but nobody mends things anymore.
Yes, I do sew. I started when I was around 8 or 9 and have been doing it off and on since then.
My grandma taught me how to hand-sew, so I'm always making things from hand-me-downs.
