When I was little, I saw sewing as a job, not something fun to do. My mother and grandmother were both seamstresses, and they used to sew for living; the sewing machine was running in the house all the time.

I thought I would follow my mother's step and become a seamstress, I didn't but I still LOVE to sew. I love sewing becasue it brings back a lot of my childhood memories; I still remember how grandmother used a chopstick to turn a spaghetti strap inside out or those times when my mother brought remanent home from the factory and made me pretty dresses. (I still have them) These memories are invaluable and I've been enjoying every sewing moment.

By the way, I keep a chopstick in my sewing kit.
