Hello to all the enterprising and successful community of HIVE, here I tell you part of my passion, sewing, since I can remember I have particularly loved sewing, although I confess that I do not like to draw, I managed to make my patterns freehand, I think this sewing is in my blood.
My maternal grandfather was a tailor, my mother was a seamstress, my aunts are seamstresses, in short, I grew up surrounded by machines, buttons, scissors, needles and threads. They did it for hobbies, but some time ago my aunt-godmother found in sewing an art, becoming a professional, and managed to create her micro-enterprise and there she goes with responsibility, perseverance and determination.
I, on the other hand, learned by watching my mother, I liked all that world, when she sat in her chair, in front of her machine, I studied but next to her, so as not to lose any detail that could help me someday, when I was ready I started to sew with her machine, I started to buy fabrics and experimented, I learned by watching her, then thanks to technology, I saw courses, tutorials, images, it was a whole world; When I had my first daughter, I made all the linen for the crib, without help, only with what I had learned.
After I quit my full time job and became a full time mom, my birthday present was a new "sewing machine" from a package, yes, just for me, and it was absolute happiness.
Now if I could create and invent with more time, a few years ago I was encouraged and opened a garment repair shop, as it is well known that in Venezuela due to the economic crisis, we have had to reinvent ourselves.
I have managed to make designs according to what the customer brings, especially ladies, sewing is a diverse world, learn every day from other colleagues, besides inventing with colors or fabrics, it's great.
I show you some of my own creations, unfortunately at that time I did not have a step by step account of what I was doing, but it will be for the next ones.
Thanks to sewing that has given me so much.
Thanks once again to you who read me, and if you liked this post, let me know, we keep in touch, we keep creating!
