FUN TIME WITH @GEE1: MY #THROWBACKTHURSDAY POST
THROWBACK TO WHAT KINDLED MY PASSION
It all started from 2012 when I left to stay with my aunt, I got to her house that night with the mentality of "levels Don change" believing I would move from shopping in my regular boutique ("bend-down boutique".If you know, you know) to shopping in a boutique with walls to shield me away from the sun rays.
But NO!!!
I only graduated from wearing okrika to wearing my uncle dash me, big enough to be worn be by two of me which would definitely not fit into my fitted and smart wardrobe specs.
I needed to do something about my designers (my mind) but the obioma (Name for tailors who are specialised in doing amendments on clothes) only left my clothes 😭😭😭😭😭
So
I resulted to amending my clothes with needle, tread and pencil (to markout where I want the stitches to pass). I did it so well that I feel so proud wearing the clothes.
Some of the many clothes I amended with NEEDLE AND THREAD

That is where it all started
