When I was working wardrobe for movie production companies, I worked one movie with a lot of extras in uniform. A lot of the extras were college kids. Another woman and I had guys lined up and we'd mark the hem length and tell them to take off the pants and bring them back (thinking they'd go change and bring them back). Nope, almost every one of those kids just dropped their pants and stood waiting in their tighty whiteys for us to fix the pants. One of my nicer memories.
lmbo!
i work in a quilt shop, and everyone thinks because you sew you can do..
well, im like you, someone called the other day wanting us to put a zipper in a jacket, and i said nope, sorry dont do zippers, only sew straight lines!! you were right to say no, some people take for granted that you can sew and fix anything. not always the case!!
keep your sense of humor-

Thanks for a great laugh!
Maybe you could have traded the shortening for the carpet work.

before you speak THINK
T – is it True? H – is it Helpful? I – is it Inspiring? N – is it Necessary? K – is it Kind?
Wish I thought of that Candace!
Why do people think that just because you sew that you would like to do alterations? It's like getting a root canal.
I used to do alterations in a bridal shop. Now I try to get out of doing ANY alterations at all.
I totally agree, and would even add in sewing clothing altogether!
Bless, O Lord, the works of my hands....
