I wish I had got into sewing sooner than I did. Having the ability to replace a broken zip on old gardening trousers and patch the knees, giving extended life to old clothes is a really satisfying.

I made a dog bag holder that clips to the lead so as to always have bags handy, but the eyelet rusted, which wasn't very practical. I have found a plastic eyelet which does the trick.

I can feel another bag is about to be made. I've never found a handbag that ticks all the boxes for what I want in a handbag. The best thing about being able to sew is I have the ability to aim for the perfection I'm looking for, whilst trying out other bag designs to practice on. 😁

I've borrowed this as it made me smile. If you sew, I think you can relate to most of these Little Misses. 😁
