Learning to sew takes time and equipment. A super short history of sewing. In many parts of the US, people learned to sew as part of their life skills – from parents or family or schools. Although Mom didn’t sew much (she did mend), she made sure I took Home Ec in high school. Why learn to sew?

We do put up decorations (ones I buy at garage sales or thrift stores and reuse each year). Dad’s old cowboy hat and a rope from the garage can be the start of a cowboy get up. Mom’s black cape, some makeup and a piece of cardboard cut and painted black to make bats ears can make someone into Dracula.
