Hemmingbird
I was taught at a young age that you learn to do by doing. My life has been built by a series of coincidental experiences; events that are all connected to the same theme. Sewing is what I do to make a living and it seems to be all that I know. The first thing I ever made was a floor length skirt in silver satin at age 12 . They say you never forget your first project! I followed my childhood passion into my mid Thirties. Now I’m stuck in a career rut wondering what I want to be when I grow up. What should I do now? I enjoy what I do. Sewing is something that I’ve become good at with practice. I am comfortable...Why would I ever want to change? Money... that’s right. More money is what my life requires for me to stay out of poverty and feed my children. Does money make us happy? I don’t make a lot of money. However, what I do for a living brings me great Joy.
