Hey, Jeff.
I did most of the sewing around my house until my daughter caught up.
Even now, I alter her clothes and am quite good at it. Mostly.
Fortunately, I've become quite accustomed to ignoring the funny looks
I get at fabric stores. (I also have a lot of fun sewing costumes
for our dance company -- the most fun is when I'm stitching away and
someone comes in who doesn't know I sew. LOL!!)
And I own a Spitfire, too. But it's not a sewing machine!
Donald.
