The worst job I had was repairing the canvas curtins for my step son's boat. I also made him cloth bags for the traps he uses to catch bait to use in his crabbing business.
AFter all sewing machines are not meant for quilting alone.
I need to learn how to hem pants. I am short and have a hard time finding pants that aren't too long.
