What you sew indicates what you love, and tells the world where your passions are. Think of all of the times throughout the history of the world there was a woman sitting and just sewing buttons on shirts. Sure, it was done for utilitarian reasons but it was also done as a gift for their families. It was something you did because you care. You don't want your little kid running around without buttons.
In many ways, even if we don't sew ourselves, our passionate convictions are still expressed through sewing, our clothes become the message. Our clothes show how serious we are about our jobs, what we care about, and many times where our political affiliations lie. From the Nixon dress to the T-shirt from Peta, the clothes send a very direct message.
