Unfortunately, neither of my girls wanted to sew when they were young. Now my youngest (25) is interested but having a hard time finding the time. Hopefully we'll get around to that but I'm also hoping my grand daughter will be interested. She's only 3 but loves to play with my fabric and patterns in my room. <br />I believe sewing is such a creative outlet. I always enjoyed having clothes and things that were unique. Thanks for sharing your story! <br />Absolutely love the rugs!! And the weekly plan!suesuebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18407114031445254691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-54484739025849120472011-01-28T01:31:22.123+10:002011-01-28T01:31:22.123+10:00Your blog is really cute!

I have a machine but now a days I'm so busy I usually don't get the chance. I like your little rugs. I think that children would love them.

I actually did a post quite similar to yours not long ago. . basically asking why? especially why in particular am I a university student teaching myself how to sew and knit etc while my peers are out partying? The reasons I came up with were 1. In memory of my grandmothers, and great grandmother, who were crafty ladies each but who I wasn't patient enough to listen to when I had the chance. . .2. Because I love being able to create. . .and 3. (perhaps most importantly) I met the man of my dreams, who fell in love with me back and the realisation has just recently really hit home (we've been together almost 3 years) that I'm going to be having children one day and I want to be able to provide for them in that way. <br /><br />Sarah<br />http://kiwigetscrafty.blogspot.comSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13146620986831885505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-70989369497381177712011-01-27T14:16:54.391+10:002011-01-27T14:16:54.391+10:00Wow, Jill!

I want to pass on sewing to my girls - but they will get lessons as i have no clue (I sew, but there is sewing and "sewing" u know?!) and will probably learn with them. It is a great skill :-)Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06859635446679188039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-30900353679456774032011-01-27T12:17:15.739+10:002011-01-27T12:17:15.739+10:00Oh I am excited to follow your blog--thanks for co...Oh I am excited to follow your blog--thanks for coming over to Day to Day Adventures! I love to sew but rarely actually do. Right now I am making rugs & scarfs but not on the sewing machine. I love the idea that you are teaching your girls(mine have taught themselves). I'd like to have specific projects to assign to them for school(homeschool). Hope to see some I can give them!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02491474196668458499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-44908093750681812062011-01-27T12:03:35.944+10:002011-01-27T12:03:35.944+10:00Jill, thanks for visiting me at A Season for All T...Jill, thanks for visiting me at A Season for All Things.

Strange how things change as we get older - I love sewing now, but that's probably because I choose to make things rather than being told to!! Now I appreciate the skills I learned all those years ago and wish I'd started sewing again sooner!Fionahttp://handmadebyfiona.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-66510091653438292772011-01-27T09:01:27.817+10:002011-01-27T09:01:27.817+10:00Oh your baby rugs are gorgeous!!!
