have for 30+ years-
mending-
alterations-
clothing-
totes/purses-
home dec items-
and of course
quilts...
sometimes i get so tired of replacing zippers- hemming pants---thank goodness i have quilting/creating as an escape.
i actually do not (encourage) the mending/alterations work---charge what i consider a ridiculous price (that i would never pay) but gosh darn it- people are still willing to pay---and still bring me those pants with broken zippers-
or clothes that need some alterations...oh well- i might not make a living at it- but it supports my (quilting addiction) :)
