I always find it fascinating to get a glimpse of the mindset of women in the past. There's actually something sweet about way this seamstress relishes her creative time behind the sewing machine. It's obvious that this is a way she 'gave' to herself. And it's not so different than how I feel about my creative projects or my reading. Although the dressing up part is definitely passé. At least in my world hahahaha
Hi Andie, I had to smile at your comment on Going Gently today. I thought as a fellow sufferer I should come over and say hi. It's not that he doesn't have stuff to do, it's the fact I have to plan his day-every day.
Errrmmm............. I think I fail on all of those. Ooops.
ReplyDeleteYou mean you don't wear lipstick when sewing? How can you live with yourself? :)

ReplyDeleteJK Rowling, when asked how she found time to write, replied something like 'I didn't do housework for two years'. Now that's my kind of thinking!

ReplyDeleteI need to wear a dress to sew?
May explain while thus far I have been no good at it.
Still no good at proof reading either, apparently. Delete while and insert why.
