I'm a tall burly cisman so people are always surprised that I know how to sew. I mostly hand-mend my clothes but I made my own pants in high school when I had access to a sewing machine.
Sewing fellas unite!
I usually make hats and tool wraps, but I mend dresses or alter clothes for friends too.
sewing is mine also. I don't think I've talked to a single person in the 15 years I've been sewing that hasn't reacted with shock to some degree or another upon finding out.
i like repairing clothes and making backpacks.
Hand-sewing is my "something to occupy my hands while watching tv" hobby. I usually take shirts that I buy at a thrift store and customize them (side panels to make them fit better, add lacy pieces, etc.).
"Sewing is girly"
Meanwhile boy scouts, military, and doctors sewing stuff all day long.
I can sew, although I kind of hate it. Sewing is an essential skill if you own a sailboat and have no money.
