    Question Other than quilts, have you sewn anything by hand

    In days past, most woman sewed by hand. I've never tried it (other than quilts) because I was always afraid I'd put the clothing item on and it would fall apart. Even things such as curtains I've used my sewing machine.

    I've made doll clothes by hand, and a few baby items-- nothing that would see much wear and tear though.
