Glad I take after my grandfather (who went throught third grade back in the late 1800's) and can look at stuff and figure it out, manuals help sometimes, but a gift not every one has so I treasure it. Sure your sister is great in many other ways.

So true, My Sister does her job very well. She is an excellent single Mom. My youngest daughter is a genius, but can't sew either. But you sit an watch her with her two girls and you can see where here "calling" in life is at. She is an excellent Mother.
My sister and I joke about her inability to sew quite a lot. She can cook, I do kid about her domestic skills. My sister was raised by our Mom since she was 10. I learned how to sew from my first husband, he taught me.
