One of my fondest memories is when I was a young girl about 12 years old, in the summer time my mother would have us pick out some sort of garmet to sew during the summer. She would sit with me and show me how to make a pattern out of newspaper and how to sew my garment. I learned how to make tops and an apron and some shorts like that. I wore the items I had made with pride. That is a memory of time spent with my mom. I would love to do that just one more summer.
