There’s an interesting link party at Get Your Crap Together titled Why I Sew. It seems to be filled with stories of inspiration!
Hmm… Why do I sew?
I certainly love the creativity, but there’s a practicality as well. Connecting with readers and other bloggers is fun, too!
If you’ve read my T-Shirt Makeover Tutorials you already know that I struggle finding things that fit and don’t have a huge budget. T-Shirts are a wonderfully affordable supply of knit fabric to create all kinds of things!

Whether it’s headbands and flowers for a cutie pie in my life or wearables for me that actually fit, T-Shirt Makeovers and Upcycles are some of my favorite things to sew!
Then there’s all the stuff my family needs and wants around our home. We live in an old rock farmhouse built in the 1930s. Handmade items add so much charm!

Is everything I sew perfect? Of course not! With each project and every single mistake, I learn. Will I ever know it all? Probably not. I’m OK with that.
Something else I love is connecting with others throughout blog land! There are so many inspiring sewists. Some are highly skilled. Some are like me, still growing. It is such a joy to share my creations with you, Sweet Reader! I certainly appreciate each and every encouraging comment!
So, that’s why I sew.
Creativity.
Practicality.
Connecting.
I’d love to hear your thoughts!
