Do you do much sewing and if so what do you sew?

I love sewing along with quilting of course. I sew many of our own clothes and want to branch out a bit and make some historical clothes, both for myself and the kids and also for dolls.

Do you sew much?

I used to sew more when the 3 older kids were toddlers and babies. Now I sew more to repair or personalize the kids colthes. But with all 4 in school, I'd like to start sewing more again.

I've always wanted to sew dolls...maybe I'll try it soon....

Do you sew alot?

Yes I love sewing. I sew bears, Raggedy Ann dolls, and clothes. I find it relaxing and fun to do.

I really like to sew. I try to do it as much as I can. I just finished machine sewing a quilt top. A couple of months ago I made an entire covered pad set with pillow for our patio glider. Once I get started on something, I like to finish it so that I don't have a lot of projects around so I make sure I have everything I need and the time to do it before I get started. Mostly I like to sew on Sunday afternoons. They are so quiet and it is relaxing to me.

I used to make the kids shorts sets and always made their jammies. I also made my own work clothes for the office. My best was the linen suit that I made right after ds#2 was born. It sure was pretty. I even wore it in a commercial our company did for one of our clients.
