[Quiet Man Cometh]

Like most crafty things, I followed my step sister into it, though my mother gave me the basics of hand-sewing. I started with little purses as they were easy, and then little pillows with patch designs. I only just recently started trying to learn actual stitches, and my step sister got me a sewing machine for Christmas which I shall attempt to figure out. For the most part, I take a needle and thread in one hand, some fabric in the other, and attempt to make them stick. It *usually* works out, though isn't always the most attractive looking. I repair clothes and darn socks, mostly by trial and error.
