I did! Last year I went on a sewing spree instead of a shopping spree. Inspired to learn basic construction of clothing and to add my own creations to my wardrobe, I made a dress, a pair of pants, a skirt, and a cape. I have to say that it’s really satisfying to sport something I have made myself. Additionally, I realized how much skill and talent it takes to put together a quality garment. Skills that, sadly, we just don’t learn anymore in this country.
Now I have a new appreciation for those people out there in the world who are making our clothes.

Lovely post! I’ve really been wanting to get into sewing!
