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. Clothing is cheap, sewing is not.

They will appreciate the thoughtfulness and might also be looking to reduce the sheer amount of unnecessary stuff that comes into their homes during the holidays. Are you a knitter, or crafter or do you know how to use a sewing machine? And I got the idea from my daughter’s Girl Scout troop Christmas party.

Learn how to use my sewing machine. This past December, I had crafts planned for each day of their holiday vacation. I won't be able to sustain that during the school year, but we had so much fun that I want to plan a new craft each week for the girls. Read one fiction book every two months for fun.

Once we used old magazines for a craft project in Camp Fire Girls to make a ‘sit upon’ (cover the magazine with something water repellent and sew the sides together). Old paper from things such as newspapers, magazines, discards from the printer and etc are used at our house to start fires, make notes and for grocery lists.
