Reigniting my Love for Sewing at Bezos Academy

I reignited my love for sewing through my time being a teaching assistant at Bezos Academy. I didn’t do much sewing in college and it was a “lost” skill that I didn’t address. However, I do think that becoming a montessorian, it did set me up to reminisce in times when I used to sew with my Lola (“grandma” in Filipinx cultures).

I can sew a button because I had to learn as a practice life skill. Starting that process with beading work, lacing cards, and working up to presenting that lesson to children is so much fun.

I don’t make my own clothes but would have fond memories making them with my Lola. She made my graduation dress.
