About Me

Hello! So I guess you would like to know a little about me. Well, my name is Marsha and I have been sewing now for about seven years. Most of what I learned is through trial and error. I have never taken any kind of formal sewing class, but I have had a few great pointers, here and there.

I remember the first time I really wanted to sew. It was probably twelve years or so ago. I remember looking for handmade goods myself at a dead lot. I met this girl who was probably in her early 20's. She had all kinds of articles of clothing piled up in her VW bus and was pulling stuff out for me to see. I remember being so impressed with all the stuff she had made. I bought a dress from her and put it on and felt so beautiful wearing it. I remember thinking how cool it would be, to be able to make clothing for others to enjoy while making a living at the same time. I had never sewn a stitch in my life though, so I didn't put much thought into really doing it.

A few years later, the thought came around again so I asked for a sewing machine for Christmas. I started making stuff for myself at first. When I look back now on the things I made in the beginning, I just want to laugh out loud. 'Did I really wear that in public?' I think to myself. I hope that my skills continue to grow and that every few years, I ask myself that same question.
