I think sewing in the generation before us might have been a really economical choice because you could save money by sewing your own clothing. I made that really popular Swedish Fjallraven Kanken bag that’s everywhere now. And the other thing that’s really popular is modifying the stuff in your wardrobe like hemming your jeans or if your pants are too big, how to take them down a size. Those are really popular now because that’s the basic skill set that sewing once provided to everyone, so it’s nice to figure out those skills yourself. To be even more ahead of that, I look through a lot of different retailers’ websites to see what it is that they think is the popular thing.
