Thank you both, those were really nice things to say

This, Ceilidh, makes me feel moved, and really proud. I am happy that by sharing news of this event, I have inspired you to want to do this

well I have already sent one a box last Jan....I went baking crazy....I made about 12 BATCHES of cookies made from scratch, each producing 2-4 dozen each.

so 12 x 3....36 dozen cookies? I was baking for three days....lol. What can I say I'm moving and I can't take the ingredents with me!! lol. Of course, all of those cookies didn't go to one person. I also mailed 4 other boxes to friends throughout the USA.

i know how you feel they are my favorite as well

Jey, are you talking about your jeans or mine?

because if you are talking about mine, I'd love to hear opnions

Obedient Little Puppy · Mar 15, 2010

Can't you sew them back up, with a thread the same colour as the jeans themselves? Or are they too badly damaged?

I discovered recently that I appear to have outgrown one of my favourite pairs of trousers. Considering they are a UK size 10 and I'm a 10-12, they were quite roomy

But now I can only just barely get them to fasten, and I don't think my stomach has got any bigger, so if it's not that, then maybe they've shrunk too much in the tumble drier

I might be able to save them. the rip is at least straight so I'm thinking about leaving the hole, and maybe putting some fabric behind it, and doing a ribbon "x" over it (kind of like Jack Skellington's mouth)

also my sewing machine is broken so I will have to use my mom's...which I won't be near until after the 30th. *sigh* I'll be breaking in her machine in nicely, I have to re-inforce the strap on my purse, fix a dress (the sleeves are too tight) and fix a skirt that is WAY too long (i tend to walk on it, it is THAT long)

Anyway, I'm hoping the theater will buy me some new jeans, they are supost to get ahold of me tomorow *crosses fingers*

Good luck with that

I really need to learn how to sew, I have a number of clothes that need some kind of repair work doing. I wish I could make my own clothes from scratch, now that would be cool

funny story. my mom and grandma used to work in a sewing factory so they know everything there is to know about sewing. I know absoutely nothing! I can't even thread a machine to save my life! (trust me, i've tried.) the purse I menchioned? well the zipper broke on another pair of my fav pants - i loved the cargo pockets. haha. well, Hubby made it!! and HE broke the sewing machine sewing the strap on, we had to hand sew it...heck, I'm the one who bought HIM the sewing machine....hehee.

by the way, i found this awesome youtube channel...thread banger...AMAZING stuff those guys!!! just wow. very simple step by step directions...also they have a great diy halloween costumes!! (ie. Mad Hatter, Lady Gaga, Fairy wings, tu-tu's...)
