MY GRANDMOTHER WOULD CREATE THE MOST MAGNIFICENT PIECES OF CLOTHING WITHOUT ANY GUIDELINE, JUST HER SEWING MACHINE. WHEN WE HAD THE IDEA OF THE HALF AND HALF. I KNEW IT WAS OUT OF MY EXPERTISE, BUT SHE DID IT WITH EASE. AFTER THAT, SHE TAUGHT ME HOW TO NOT ONLY USE A SEWING MACHINE, BUT TO SEW BY HAND. ONCE I HAD THE BASICS DOWNPAT, THE OPPORTUNITIES WERE ENDLESS. THE STITCHING LINE, AND ANTYHING STITCHED, IS IN HONOR OF HER.
