Vintage for the real world
As I headed to my sewing machine today, I suddenly thought: “Sewing is magic.”
Then the last two lines of the following poem popped into my head:
“Magic”
Sandra’s seen a leprechaun,
Eddie touched a troll,
Laurie danced with witches once,
Charlie found some goblins’ gold.
Donald heard a mermaid sing,
Susy spied an elf,
But all the magic I have known
I’ve had to make myself.
Shel Silverstein, Where the Sidewalk Ends
This blog is a chronicle of my sewing 
adventures as I attempt to build a wardrobe of vintage-inspired clothing that works in the real world. I'm blogging to motivate myself to sew more regularly, to try more advanced techniques, and to share what I learn along the way.
During the day, I help associations with their marketing and communication projects as the owner of JMT Communications Management. You can learn more about that here.
Thank you for visiting!
