I have been cleaning my sewing room this morning & I have a stack of clothes I am returning to my kids because their kids have outgrown them. hmmm..maybe subconsciously that was my plan all along...I reaaaalllly don't like doing repairs & especially alterations. I also like the one about "would you ask Michaelangelo to paint your house! may have to try that one.
