To me, having 500 rolls of fabric around is the most calming thing in the world. I think it's what football is to some guys.

I'm always tinkering with something - suddenly I'll think I can work with wood, but then I'll realize I can't, so I go back to sewing.

In my 20s I used to cry about why I wasn’t thinner or prettier, but I want to add that I also used to cry about things like: ‘I wish my hair would grow faster. I wish I had different shoes …

I don't really know why I'm not thinner than I am.

Part of being young is you thinking that gaining 6 lbs. Is the end of the world

I watch HGTV like a maniac, and when it's bad, it's like some crazy college guy watching a football game.

I've never been interested in playing the boring ingenue.
