sewthisisme is a blog about me, about sewing, about my life. I have a lot of ideas and I would like to post them and let you know what I am doing (in the creative sense) and how my projects are progressing and hope that it will encourage you in some way. In turn, I hope a conversation emerges and ideas start to fly and somehow we all benefit :-).
I have been sewing since I was eight, when I learned to sew making barbie doll clothes. My grandmother helped me with some doll patterns to help stylize my creations and I specifically remember making barbie a charcoal gray 60's style coat. Later, my mom signed me up for a sewing class at a local sewing shop after I had made numerous clothes and this is where I finally learned the importance of facings and a properly sewn zipper!!! What a difference a little technique, practice, and ripping accomplish. That was at the age of 12 years old. Now, sew many garments, drapes, quilts later here I am starting this blog with the hopes of getting my ideas out there to share, hoping to hear from others about their great ideas, starting a community of sewers, quilters, and such.
