~ Lessons Learned ~

This is a picture of my mom and her sister.
My mom is on the left.

This is a picture of me and my sister.
I am on the left.
I still need to learn to stand up straight.

My mom sewed those charming dresses for my sister and me.
She took great pride in the fact that she had "never had a sewing lesson."

I learned to sew because she taught me how.
Those were great lessons.

I have a picture of her that sits to the left of me as I sit at my sewing machine.

Everyday I look at her ... and thank her.
And miss her.

Who taught you to sew?
