I've a an old hand run sewing machine of my mom. My mom still use it sometimes and I very much feel that the previous generations were more sovereign than ours.
agree, much skilled and willing to do the work!
Well, I don't have any sewing machine recommendations, but I'm pretty sure making our own clothes is a clear sign of sovereignty nonetheless. ;)
happy to document my journey - I already did the work on finding beautiful hand-woven fabric ( yes, they still exist! ) and learned the basics of natural dyes ( all you need is a kitchen, some roots, and the patience to test ).
so logically, getting a sewing machine is like the next step to explore 👀 and I hand sewed a underwear just to see how much I'm really into doing it, and wow really fun! 😂😂😂

I'm thinking to get the traditional, it seems not too heavy and has the basics I need.
and wow @carlosfandango many talents 👀

yes I found a lot of repair shops here, not too worrying.
I really admire how some Turkish ladies can make so many things, from cooking, cleaning, knitting to sewing, but it is NEVER too late to learn! especially if I would be someone's mum one day, better to pick up these skills slowly I think. 🤔
