Garment sewing is no longer a way to save money. It has evolved into a rewarding, creative use of spare time. Some sewers get up early to sew for a couple of hours; others sew into the late-night talk-show battles. Actually, one of the most successful classes offered in quilt and sewing shops is the all-nighter. Sewing enthusiasts love taking these classes and workshops to get away from stresses at home and work-and to hone their sewing and surging skills to boot. Some just like to join other sewers for a sewathon.
