10th place: Parvenu
The reason for sewing can also be commonplace - the store does not have the right size, the right model, but just do not have what you want. "A sewing machine is almost like a bicycle, one day you will learn to ride, and you will remember it for life". The main thing is not to pass. Eyes are afraid, but hands do. And as a result, you get what you no longer part with. It may be so good that on that day there was no Parvenu dress in the store.
Editors burdastyle.ru thanks Natasha Vladimirovna for a compliment to the magazine Burda! It’s one thing when you sew and quite another when you get it. "on patterns Burda".

And finally, I would like to say in words Elenika from her story: “Here is a fabric store where flowing opportunities surround me from all sides, and I start to dream: this is for walking, this is for work, this and this are for a date, and there you can go to the ball. This is the process of creation, and I already see my dream behind the stitches, exciting fitting, corrections, finishing, and ... the mirror doesn’t deceive, I made this beautiful new thing myself! Magic, and that’s all! It’s hard to understand, it’s impossible to explain. And when someone asks, “Why?”, I reply with a smile: “I just like to sew.”
