Pickles by Brian Crane for February 12, 2012

Sounds like Pearl is right back to square one.

might need to get some thread too

That reminds me. I think I’ll need to get a new pair of pants or two soon. The buttons arre about to fall off a couple of black pairs I have.

Even sewing might help get off some of that weight. Opal is not as heavy.

i’m right with yah! broke the needle on ours about 15 years ago. it still doesn’ t work, even tho i got new needles. maybe i should find them and put a new one in….

It’s like replacing your lawn mower blades; how many people have replaced the entire mower when they really needed to just look at the blades?

I used to sew when I was in the Juniors.

Wasn’t really good at it.

LOL xxx

I wonder with the cuts in education if people are being taught to sew. I quit sewing when knits became popular since I couldn’t sew them as cheaply. I do use my machine for repairing tears, but I sew by hand when shortening hubby’s pants, using a blind stitch. Many of my friends are into quilting and they use their machines a lot.

Yep… bought a car once. Then it ran out of gas.

I patch and wear mine to death,always have always will,, even though my hippie days are past….
