No. I use much the same philosophy there. I sew for function. I like to make clothes because I can make things very comfortable the way I like them, not the way the magazines and TV, etc., say they should be. I also like to take shortcuts. I am not good with fiddly things.


A person after my own heart. Don't care anywhere near as much for the process as I do for the finished result.

Ditto. People are always astonished when they see me in something new, and then say "But you LIKE to sew, don't you?" and I swiftly reply "No, I just like the results." As far as I am concerned, it is another household chore, like cooking delicious, elegant meals which cater to dh's diabetes and keep his glucose level exactly where the doc wants it while allowing him to "eat like a king".
