RE: My latest creations ~ made from organic scraps
This is what I am talking about. Do you need a sewing machine to make things like this or will needle and thread do?

You could certainly hand stitch if you had the time, but a sewing machine will speed up the process tenfold.
Word, yeah. I'm just thinking about the women I've met who survive travelling while making clothing. Some had machines and some didn't. Would you try to lug one around with you if you were to go travelling?
My dear friend who helped me get started on my sewing journey travels in her van and has a few sewing machines, one of which she keeps in a little black ottoman - it fits perfectly. She cannot use it in her van though, unless she had a power source running to it which is rare. Most of my traveling friends will just hand sew, though. I think it would be hard to do it on the road, but some women do, which I commend them for! If I were traveling, I think I'd leave mine behind and try to use a friend's if it were available :-)
