354 The Artist Learns the Craft of Sewing

To begin the craft of sewing, Yujia needed instructions. She wanted whatever she made to look good, not like the work of a three-year-old.

As a result, she wandered around in the villa until she ran across Lili, carrying a bucket of taros. 

"Lili!" Yujia called out, waving her free hand. "Are you busy?" 

Pausing in her steps, the young woman replied, "Not in particular; I'm just bringing these taros to the kitchens. Auntie says she wants to make pastries with it." 

"That sounds good," Yujia said.

"En, did you need anything?" Lili continued walking after asking, Yujia following.

Gesturing her head at the bundle of cloth in her hands, Yujia explained, "I actually wanted to ask if you knew how to sew a cloak, or if not, if you could direct me to someone who could help me with it. I've been wanting to sew one as a gift." 

"A cloak? Cloaks are rather simple; I can certainly help you sew one!" Lili seemed rather interested.
