Stephanie Miller, an art teacher and a mother of four live in Utah. Soon after she became a mother, she realised that she has lost her creative touch. She was lost in postpartum depression because of her new responsibilities of being a mother. Her life took a new turn when her husband brought home a $50 sewing machine from Walmart. This is when the idea of using her husband’s old shirts to make her daughter’s dresses came into her mind.
The sewing machine helped her regain her creativity and she started watching tutorials regarding sewing and stitching. She started using her husband’s old shirts to make her daughter’s dresses and the dresses she makes are completely amazing. Seeing her creativity, their friends and neighbours started to donate their old clothes, so that Stephanie doesn’t have to worry about the raw material. Have a look at some of her amazing creations.
