So. I am no seamstress. Not even one bit. My daughter has some project where she has to dress like a Native American. I just spent 5 hours with a sewing machine that wanted to do everything but sew. See, this is probably the 3rd time in my life I’ve used this thing.
In the past I would have huffed and puffed and gotten REALLY IRRITATED and given up. I literally sat there for 5 hours focused and determined to make that thing work. I laughed at my screw ups like sewing the skirt panel on backwards and having to do it all over) and forged ahead without irritation, anger, or simply giving up.
THAT my friends, is an enormous milestone for me!! I FINISHED THAT DAMN SKIRT!! And, the sewing machine lives to see another day.
Right on! Frustration is a tricky bastard and props to you for just forging ahead. I’m definitely no seamstress myself so I know the feeling lol. I can hem jeans and sew in a straight line and that’s about it for my bag of tricks
In the UK fanny means a different female body part. My friend was working on a cruise ship and an American lady asked him if they had any fanny packs and he didn’t know what she meant, but took a guess and brought her to the shelves that stored sanitary towels.
Congratulations to your determination!
