Graphic design isn't the only art I practice. I actually studied ceramics, and textiles in college. Then needed to actually make money, ha! Kids, if you are reading this take the fun classes but major in something that you can actually find a job in, I know that may not sound like much fun, but it's a reality check everyone needs.
Any way, point being, I also sew. I wouldn't exactly call myself a seamstress. I took sewing lessons and a child, worked in a fabric store in college and occasionally make pillows and curtains. I just really hate following patterns, some how when it comes to reading them my brain just stops working.
I am 36 weeks pregnant with baby girl Statler #2 and decided to make make (without a pattern) a delivery gown. I know a lot of people, my husband included, think this is silly but you know I JUST DON'T REALLY CARE:) It is nice to feel pretty when you are sweaty, uncomfortable, swollen, and trying to push a mellon through a key hole!
