I need a hot glue festival! I have a similar collection of broken things piling up that I keep telling my children I'll fix. I love that we seem to be having a cultural return to reusing and repairing instead of consuming and disposing. ❤️

Having the "festival" was so satisfying. Fixing things is kind of fun!

I love your parents back and forth on darning, I can just picture it. 😊

Glad you liked it. It was a real classic when I was growing up!

I used to try to sew things. I made a couple of dresses that I didn’t like very much. But I made a Corduroy jumper when I was pregnant that I really liked. My best efforts were with curtains. I still have window treatments in my house that I made!

Oooh! I love that! I want to see the curtains.

I tried to make a dress once, and was so perplexed by the pattern, I gave up.

Thank you for answering my questions earlier! <3
