I've Been Sewing, Sewing and Sewing


Over the years I've written about sewing and how my family has "sewing in our bones."  I sew, my sister sews, my sister-in-laws sew, my nieces sew, my mother sewed, my grandmother sewed, my aunts all sewed, and my great grandmothers and aunts all sewed.  Suffice to say I come from a long line of sewers.

There's no doubt about it. We're a sewing family. We've got sewing in our bones!

Personally, I just love to sew. You might even say that not only do I have "sewing in my bones" but, I have a "need to sew." But, what does that mean?

Anyone who loves to sew knows what I mean when I say "I just have an urge to sew." An overwhelming desire to create. And when you do, you get into a mode - "a sewing mode" which may last for days on end. Sometimes, even months on end. You must be wondering, "Is that relaxing?" For me it is. It's the best form of relaxation.
