Recessions are a good enough reason to dust off the sewing scissors and set to work designing and creating your own masterpieces at home.
I admit to being the seamstress for our school fashion show 15 years ago - largely because I was the only one who could work a sewing machine. From there I went to art college and painting took over. I never really sewed again.
Here I am at 30, cautiously dipping my toes back into the lost crafts of homemaking - knitting, sewing and upholstering, among other things.
It's nice. It means I get to furnish my home with bespoke curtains, lamps and cushions and I don't have to pay the ends of the earth to do so.
Enjoy x
