Taking a sewing class

[ray1970]

So, the wife is taking some sort of sewing class and since I had nothing better to do that day and since spending quality time with the woman I love ranks pretty high on my list of priorities I had her sign me up as well.

I like to think of it as learning a new survival skill.

What a wuss. Unfriend.

My mom taught me enough sewing to get by when I was younger. Cooking too.

Good skills to have.

I've thought about taking a class as well. Bought an entry level machine, been tinkering with a few things. Made the wifey a goatskin wallet, but anything more substantial needs a bigger machine. I'd like to get something that could sew heavy webbing to make dog harnesses and the like.

I give it six months before we see Ray on the hit new reality TV series, "Sew You Think You Can Darn?!"

Lol.

I thought about not hitting the "submit" button after I wrote my original post.

You need to sign her up for some blacksmithing and metal working classes too!

That's a wonderful idea.

Once you learn patterns and simple stitching you can make some cool stuff with a big enough machine
