OOOOOOOOOHHHH!!!! HOW I WISH I KNEW HOW TO DO THAT BACK IN THE 80's. ONE CHRISTMAS I WAS SEWING FOR MY LITTLE GIRLS, AND MY YOUNGEST DAUGHTER ASKED ME " MAMA HAS THERE EVER BEEN A DAY THAT YOU HAVEN'T "sewed" ON THE SEWING MACHINE?" WHICH AMAZED ME BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW SHE NOTICED WHAT I WAS DOING OR THAT SHE COULD EVEN KNEW HOW TO FORM THE THOUGHT TO ASK ABOUT IT. THEN MY SON CAME ALONG AND ROUGH!!!!ON JEANS KNEES!!! THIS WOULD HAVE SAVED A LOT OF JEAN'S FOR WINTER WEAR WITHOUT THE DRAFT. THANK YOU FOR SHARING, NOW I HAVE LITTLE GRAND DAUGHTERS, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! GRACIAS!!!!!!
