Oh my goodness! What an amazing final day yesterday at So Sew Etc’s Sewing Camp 101! The
ladies arrived filled with excitement, ready to finish their pillowcases! Everyone
also remembered to bring back their finished drawstrings bags!
Before they started sewing the “roll” they did another
little practice by sewing a straight line! Which reminds me, my only regret I
have about this whole week… I didn’t save the first day’s stitching samples.
What a difference a few days of practicing makes!
I don’t know if you’ve taken the time to look through the
photo album “Sewing
Camp” over on the Facebook page, but I hope you will sometime! When looking
over the pictures, note the facial expressions while the participants are
sewing!!! Priceless!
On the drive home yesterday, tears welled up in my eyes
thinking about the week. I don’t want this to be about “me” because it’s the
ladies who “did it” – they got it! But, I told myself “I Did It”!!!! I had a
dream, to teach my love of sewing to the next generation of sewists, and things
all fell into place to accomplish turning a dream into reality!
I encourage everyone, teach the next generation something
you love! It's a Wrap is the rest of the story!
The week wasn't about you. When we give, we receive so much more in return. Love you! Me
ReplyDeleteVery true, Me!!! (I wish I knew who "me" is!)
DeleteI guess I stated it wrong... I never intended for, or thought in my own mind, the week was about me. It wasn't, it was about the next generation of sewists.
I was simply talking about a dream and is what I meant by "I did it" was that I put out into the universe a dream I had and because the ladies "got it" my dream became a reality.
It's amazing when dreams come true.
