Taking a sewing class

I learned to sew in grade school. It is a great skill to have.

I have sewn for many years. I have gotten much better in the last 2 years. I can show you how to properly adjust top and bottom tension how to spot problems, etc. You can bring your machine if its small enough to transport. Mine are not. I do have one small machine, but all the rest are large and very large.

That's really cool of you to offer.

Had to sew a million patches by hand for my son and myself back in the Scout days.

If you and your son weren't so awesome you would have had fewer patches to sew.

I don't recall, was there a patch for that?

Should of been a patch for me for finally teaching him how to do his own sewing. [ROFL3]

Worst part was 3 complete uniforms when he went to his first National Jamboree.

Mom taught me how to sew and cross stitch as well. Came in handy, we didn't have a tailor on my frigate

Sewing is a great skill to have- but it's like firearms, in that you can't just stop with one type of sewing. Pretty soon you're looking to branch out into sergers, cover stitch machines, industrial leather sewing machines, etc.

But it's a terrific skill that sows instant results. And there are many, many YouTube videos to assist, as well as videos for all level of sewists on Craftsy.

So what'd you make?
