you guys are so intuitive, the thing I have always had trouble with, is sewing or cutting a straight line, that and my ADD of staying on task and completing a project is why I am nervous. I marvel at my engineer husband, he is not the most social but he is so focused and precise on every task he takes on. For the last few weeks in addition to his long hours at work he has been replacing our rotting wood deck railings with a permeant type of material, the material was very expensive, luckily he has not made a wrong cut that has wasted any of the material . Tonight he spent three hours cutting and grinding metal strips to form brackets for the last 8 he needed. He said he could have postponed the project and bought them but he wanted to finish and not spend a bunch of extra money. I know I make jokes but I also know me and I am not good at staying with something I find difficult, anyway I did not mean to make this truth or dare but I am going to try to make something or at least get the machine running so I can at mend a huge pile of clothes that I have been accumulating. you guys like Kazzy that can rebuild a house and KJC that sews like an artist yet takes care of a zillion dogs and has so many words of wisdom for those with dog health issues or just sewing questions. or people like Southernbelle or Rubymoon that just took up sewing and can turn out several beautiful dresses in less than a day inspire me and make we want to try something and hopefully finish it. So thanks for the words of encouragement |
