Songbird Member Registered: 06/03/04 Posts: 2830 Loc: Massachusetts, USA	Wow! It's been a while since I did some sewing, other than a button or two here and there. I used to sew and hem and mend too... not so long ago. And I love the buttons, the trims, and all the gadgets we hardly use any more. I had sewing patterns, fabrics and other things that eventually I gave away, and or threw away for lack of space. Sewing, by hand or machine is a blessing. It's a shame not many young girls learn these days the skills of life. _________________________ In His love, Songbird http://expressionpublishingministries.com www.inkspirationsbyrhodi.blogspot.com NABBW & NAWW

Louisa Member Registered: 07/11/04 Posts: 2132 Loc: MA	I remember all that. I also remember sticking myself with pins and needles, trying to thread a needle with an eye that seemed smaller than the thread itself, using those flimsy paper patterns and pinning them to the material and the paper ripping all over the place, sewing a button on only to find it didn't line up with the hole. And I remember some of the dresses I made. LOL _________________________ Author - Publisher www.carouselkisses.blogspot.com www.therehalworld.blogspot.com www.luvs2write.com

jawjaw Da Queen Registered: 07/02/03 Posts: 12025 Loc: Alabama	I took some sewing lessons and right along with cake decorating, I was a dunce. Then again, I hated sewing. I love crafts of all kind, just not anything to do with sewing. Of course nowadays, I would be lucky to see well enough to thread a needle! _________________________ Queen JJ www.queenjawjaw.com All Things Royal - 2010 and Beyond Humorist for the NABBW

yonuh Member Registered: 06/14/06 Posts: 2447 Loc: Arizona	Yes, I do! Thank goodness for needle threaders, though I sometimes have a problem getting that through the eye, even with my contact lenses. _________________________ Well-behaved women rarely make history. - Laurel Thatcher Ulrich http://ruthrainwater.wordpress.com/ http://newbeginningsgratitudejournal.wordpress.com/ http://sablewings.wordpress.com/

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	I hate sewing, but admire those who can. Grandma was a wonderful seamstress and cook and human being. I'm waiting for my kids to arrive from S.C.; last I heard, they were in W.Va. near the Pa. border. It takes about 5 hours to drive from there to here. My son's three daughters are all grown and I'm looking forward to having a fun week! Just felt like sharing.
