I Can Do Buttons


Here I am sewing on a button on a hand me down shirt. Pretty thrifty, huh? I even found a perfect match button for it. :)

But, that's about all I can do in the sewing department, if replacing a button constitutes sewing. Does it? Oh, and I can mend a small hole.

I'm not sure why I am not a better sewer (wait a minute, that word looks wrong)....I mean seamstress.....probably because I don't enjoy it very much.

I guess that means that I won't be able to pass much on to my girls in that department.

Hey, at least I think I make up for it in cooking. Now there's something that I am passionate about!

Two of my girls sew. I do not. So sad. I would like to, but I have never learned.

I LOVE to sew, daydream about sewing, am so drawn to needlecraft... How frustrating to have no time whatsoever to EVEN put on buttons!

I went and bought a $700 sewing machine before I figured out that I don't enjoy sewing either. I sure could have saved some dough by being a 'button only' mom like you!
