"Teach Them To Sew"
"I wish I could help you with your
needle work. I have two hands and
a new thimble that lead a very easy life."
~Jane Austen, in letter to her sister.
Cassatt
Thankfully,
sewing is not a lost art,
as I see it.
The fabric stores are filled with
women of all ages.
The"take-a-number" line at the
cutting counter is always
exceptionally long.
It is there, I see
shopping carts filled with
bolts of fabrics.
This is
a good thing, considering
the days we're living in,
for more reason, than one.
Teach them to sew and
they will have a sense of
accomplishment
in creating
good things for themselves,
their family
and their home.
Imagine it, and you can make it! Dee Dee
