Homesteading for us sewing , crocheting and crafting are just as important as gardening and working with the animals. Back in the days of homesteading and coming across the prairie in the 1800's, you were considered very valuable if you could sew. Once a month a group of us, calling ourselves Threadsisters, get together to share what we have been working on and inspire each other to sewing and create even more.
Here's some photos from the day.
Susan's quilt from old shirts.
Mom and Daisy working away.
Susan worked on a new/old trunk.
You know those Dollar Store Birds? They are easily blinked up. Here is Susan with hers.
Even old plastic skeletons become art covered in fabric.
I am sewing book covers.
Daisy loves to quilt...all kinds of quilts.
Got an old purse? Why not cover it with fabric?
Yep, sewing requires no makeup, no getting dressed up....just sew!
Daisy's daughter worked on this one.
Daisy's work for a new grandbaby of hers.
All in all a very fun sewing day.
