How's that even possible?!), I was in 4-H, and I sewed a pair of pajamas (Pants AND a top! With decorative bric-a-brac! Or wric-a-wrac. Hell, I don't know. It was wavy piping)that earned me a purple ribbon at the county fair. Purple ribbons are like reaching the top of Mt. Everest for hick girls like me! <BR/><BR/>Today? Dude, I can't even sew a button on. If someone's loses one from a shirt or pair of pants, we go to this magic place where they sell new shirts or pants. I don't like that to happen very much though, so there's been a time or two where I've used a stapler (shhhh...).<BR/><BR/>I've got nothing but big respect for you, sir. Did you do that with a slip stitch? You can say you did, it won't mean anything to me if you say it's something different!for a different kind of girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04431273646365489225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775208920171527729.post-1774689424439633762008-05-29T14:23:00.000-07:002008-05-29T14:23:00.000-07:00Your first doll surgery?

And what about that old fashioned telephone with the flat bottom and plug is? I found it under that pile of shirts on the closet floor??<BR/><BR/>I have sewed (badly) my share of stuffed animals. In fact, the latest was a mermaid whose tail had a hole in it just about where her 'human' bum would be if she had one. Rachel asked me to fix her to 'keep her mermaid poopies from falling out'. So I did. Now she is losing her mermaid boogers.<BR/><BR/>Lovely.<BR/><BR/>www.swirlgirlspearls.blogspot.comSwirl Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18241915723936809627noreply@blogger.com
