Sunday night at 1:25 a.m.May God help me, I sewed that skirt and blouse for the school play & my own skirt ALL WEEKEND! I felt like coming through on time for once. All that's left is the fitting & hand sewing that I need Mary for. I used those cool buttons that you make yourself with the material you're using. I like to sew because 1) It erases 1 link between me & the animal the cloth came from, & 2) It's cheaper, 3) You can get clothes exactly the way you want them 4) It gives me a feeling of satisfaction & pride, 5) It feels like I'm cheating the big corporations somehow--like robbing them sort of since I'm not buying their shitty clothes. I spose they own Simplicity or Singer or Vogue or Butterick, etc. probly though. Oh well, you can't fight city hall (at least not all the time).
