Dr. Samii Kennedy Benson shares her lifelong passion for sewing, starting at four years old. With no family background in sewing or needlework, she cultivated her skills by hand, inspired by her love of fashion and creating clothes for her Barbie dolls.

She recounts nostalgic trips to fabric stores and learning to read patterns, largely self-taught with encouragement from her mother. This episode dives into her early experiences and the foundational role they played in her creative journey.
