Sewing With My Hands
By Sister Latosha
As a young daughter of Tzion I love to sew with my hands and do it for others at the community.
My name is Sister Latosha, and I am one of the seamstresses at Victory Community. I began sewing at the age of 15, making dresses for myself. My first garment was not wearable, but that did not discourage me! I kept on making dresses, skirts, and shirts. Now the clothes that I make are very, very nice. Knitting, and crocheting I enjoy too, but sewing is my favorite. I can make just about anything I set my mind to do.YAHWEH has baraked my hands since the first day that I started to sew.
I am seven months pregnant and there is nothing in the stores that is kodesh for me to wear. So I have been making my maternity clothes. Being able to sew for myself is one of the greatest gifts YAHWEH has baraked my hands to do. I create dresses and skirts to wear all the time. My husband and I often dress alike when we go on trips, or when going to the tabernacle for worship service. Our Pastor always tells us that YAHWEH wants the daughters of Tzion to keep our hands busy. Sewing is one way to do just that, so try it. Make something for yourself, your child or your husband, you might like it. Then you might just want to keep on sewing, just like me.
YAHWEH Barak!
