I spent my early childhood tinkering with mom’s sewing kit. The highlight of my primary school years was when I became an expert at basting and made a stack of napkins. In junior high, I learned to crochet; in college, knit; then embroider. I suppose there is something about sewing that attracts me. The thought of how a single needle moves through space, and in the process of doing so – transform a plain piece of fabric into something else, to give it depth and volume, to fold it and twist it and make it come alive.
