I learned to prefer natural fibers.
I learned the beauty of long flows of fabric in motion, as in long
full sleeves, long full skirts, shawls, etc.
I learned that ANYTHING can be embellished (not only embroidery on
blue jeans but also painting on raincoats, making trench coats out of
floral
I learned to embroider because boyfriends liked their sign of the zodiac
embroidered on a chambray shirt. I went through several boyfriends and a
lot of astrological signs between '69 and '72!

What costume things did you learn in the 60s?
Tempera paint crayon masks, cutting holes for eyes in sheets. I
think I learned to crochet about then to make bridles for my Breyer
horses. I was a small kid in the 60s.
PS. Really enjoying stories of what the college kids were doing in the 60s.
things did you learn in the 60s?
Back in the 1960s I discovered ethnic garments and embroidery. (Any ethnic
