Saturday Sewing
Saturday September 19, 2010

In the fall I always seem to start doing
a lot more sewing. Isn't it great to think
about different things you would like to make?
I love to do that. So today I am starting new
sewing project.
A nightgown!
I am attempting to do pleating on this
garment. Today I spent the afternoon
cutting the pattern out.
I was pondering again on how much
would a woman in pioneer days spend
sewing?
I am sure its a lot more than what I spend
doing? Once or twice a week. She probably
spent every evening sewing. Since her days
were spent preparing meals.
Just some thoughts !
Yes, she would have sewn pretty much everyday, because if she didn't there would be nothing for her or her family to wear...unless she bought it premade.
ReplyDeleteI just found your place, and I the serenity of it is just perfect.
