The Power of Zen
If you are anything like me, you keep going and going until you drop. You have a checklist/do-list a mile long and it seems like you always put more things on it than you can remove. At the end of the day that glass (or bottle) of wine just isn't cutting it anymore and you need something to relax you, something that will allow you to simply take a step back and breathe.

Threading the Needle
My memories of sewing go back forty-five years at gas speed .... It was time to move to street in Chennai .... It was time to move to Chennai as my mother got a teaching job at Thana lakshmi Middle School where my father worked ....

It was time to call my grandmother, grandfather, aunt, uncle, aunty and measure me with my relationships. .. A sewing machine in the main room of the house, except for some cooking utensils that my mother brought with me .... Usha sewing machine that my father bought after listening to my mother's request .... It is not for sewing for my mother's entertainment ... To fix the financial deficit of the house .... Then the teaching work, the sewing work throughout the evening ... the tuition children around the mother on the side ... the mother's legs and arms to run on the sewing machine, the vision is to look at the students .... until the night Dad returns home, the sound of the sewing machine will continue to sound ... Attracting customers to mom's sewing job is addictive .... My mother would automatically teach me to sew underwear, short skirts, sleeveless tops, and lace sewn gowns .... because I was a little fat .... Started .... In a few days, Taylor became the property of the people in the neighborhood ..... During Diwali and Pongal, they would stay up all night sewing .... That would cover the small expenses of the family ..... .... paralyzed at home for some time in motionless silence .... Then Usha Company released a new sewing machine .... After sewing ... the upper part of the machine can be tilted inside and placed inside a box-like structure and covered with a wooden board horizontally on it, it can also be used as a desk .... They waited for hours and bought it .... everyone at home was so happy to see it .... What to do with the old machine .... Parents do not have the habit of selling anything .... So it was donated by a distant relative who was abandoned by her husband and raised her only daughter struggling alone ... The new sewing machine was initially in operation for a long time ...

Sewing My Way to Inner Peace
Growing up, I never had any hobbies. I was expected to do well in school, go to college, and get a well-paying job. I majored in finance because that was a practical major with promising job prospects after graduation. My day job involves data analysis to generate insights aimed at increasing company revenue. As you can imagine, there's constant pressure to provide actionable information stakeholders can use to meet revenue targets.

Just a Happy Hooker
Crochet is a French term meaning 'small hook'. It is a process of creating cloth-like textiles with a hook interlocking loops of yarn, thread, or strands of other materials. The main difference between crochet and knitting, besides the obvious different tools used, is that each stitch in crochet is finished before the next one is begun, wherein knitting there are many stitches open at a time. The first known published instructions used to describe the craft, appeared in the Dutch magazine, 'Penelope', in 1823, but there is evidence of crochet as early as the eleventh century. To this day, crochet remains one of the only crafts that cannot be duplicated by a machine. So every stitch is handmade, with love, guaranteed.

Quilting my way to peace
Three years ago I purchased my first quilt kit. Truthfully I didn't know what I would do with it, but the picture on the package was beautiful. I was on vacation, a cruise actually, to Alaska. One of the stops on the cruise was a town that had an amazing quilt shop. When I walked in my breath was taken away.
