God……. Glenda and I were that young once too!
I just turned 60 the other week, and in my obligatory speech, I said the only thing I can still clearly remember was being young once!
Enjoy it guys, time flies when you’re having fun…

Comment on Mending jeans by Rebecca Goulding

Hi Rachel. It was the bum that needed patching. There’s nothing special about my machine but it does have a removable arm thing that I pretty much always have removed. You could maybe bunch up the leg of the pants and sew by machine but it could be easier to mend by hand. It’d probably be neater and more accurate too. I’m no expert on darning though. Let me know how you get on! X

So, you need a machine with an arm for this sort of mending, right? Assuming it was the leg that had a hole. My hubby has about 6 pairs of pants waiting for patches but my machine doesn’t have an arm so I’m at a bit of a loss. Maybe shorts?!

Comment on Fabric Friday – repurposing by Rebecca Goulding

I like the book a lot. The projects are useful. I have the iBook version, which is strange for a craft book! I don’t have her other books so I can’t compare. I borrowed this one from the library before I bought it. There are little tips on being a more ‘earthy’ family too. I think I would like to make all the sewing projects in the book. There are some non-sewing projects, like bookmaking and a decoupage tray, which also look interesting. My iBook version cost $13, which isn’t a lot, and I think it’s worth it.

Bags! Love them! Glad I’m not the only one! xx

oooo, you have that book!? I’ve been trying to decide which of her books to get for a while now. That is the one I’m leaning towards! Worth it? Gorgeous bag and I can totally relate to the bag lady comment! I collect bags too and have made a couple. Much prefer bags than any other accessory!
