dang, Lisa, I laughed out loud when I read this! :lol:
I am a sorter, counter, organizer, but it comes from a very chaotic, crazy, disorganized childhood...hmmm, where I was always cleaning, rearranging, and reorganizing :shock:
BUT...i have never numbered the socks...bc I had never heard of that :wink:
When Dh and I were in the Army, we did number our uniforms so that they faded unifrmly, NOT! We were not the only the ones with this system. I ham loving this thread and laughing so hard. When my bobbins are low, I pray to the sewing god to make it last but would not want audio when I run out. I have also been known to use a siimilar color (very close in shade) to finish it off.
Perhaps my biggest idiosyncrasy is that I sew everything in white on my inner seams where it doesn't show, except black fabric, which is not always smart but it what I do. Drives my girls crazy b/c I do some of the mending in whaite b/c it's in my machine already even though it rarely matches what's being mended. :)
