I love sewing and embroidery! But then again, I am in my 50s and grew up learning cooking and sewing from my grandmother. I REALLY wish I had learned tatting from her - a dying and almost lost art. And someday, I dream of spinning and weaving my own cloth.

My daughter however, who is in her early 20s, has had no desire to learn to cook or sew, no matter how much I try to encourage or teach her. I think we now live in a world of instant gratification. It's so much easier to just buy something new at a store or order your food at a restaurant. I blame the whole money/consumer system we live in.
