Some churches require sisters to wear skirts and head-covering especially during Lord's day worship while other churches meet barefoot. Do you have a dress code in the church?

When you first learned to sew

kdarrell @kdarrell (1562) • Canada 27 Oct 06

When you first learned to sew, did you teach yourself or take a class? I bought a sewing machine and taught myself. Currently I am working on a quilt that a friend of mine wants made for a little bit of a profit.

heathertruett Probably in the 1920s. I have always loved that era. Maybe I could be a flapper. I love the dresses and the short hairchuts. I love the dancing too. It could be a lot of fun.
