What Does Sewing Mean To You

STUDENT TELLS HER STORY

Sewing has been an important part of my life for as long as I can remember. It’s a skill that has been passed down through generations in my family, and I feel a deep connection to it. To me, sewing is more than just a hobby or a craft – it’s a way of expressing my creativity, connecting with my heritage, and finding joy in the simple act of creating something with my hands.

Growing up, I spent countless hours watching my grandmother sew. She was a talented seamstress who could make anything from a simple dress to a complex quilt. She taught me the basics of sewing, and I quickly fell in love with the process. I loved choosing fabrics, piecing together patterns, and seeing the final product take shape.

As I got older, sewing became a way for me to express my individuality. I could create my own clothes and accessories that reflected my personal style and taste. I loved the feeling of wearing something that I had made myself – it gave me a sense of pride and confidence that I couldn’t get from store-bought clothes.
