I sew all of our clothes. I also make rag rugs out of old clothing so if it is too bad for repair it gets torn or cut into usable fabric and made into rugs or rag quilts
repair on
reduce reuse recycle

My dad does it! He always does all the sewing in the family - I think he enjoys it. He even fixes clothes that don't need it - my niece had a denim skirt that was frayed round the hem so he took it up. Unfortunately, it was supposed to be frayed! He's good at sewing, but knows nothing about fashion - bless!!

I stitch my dress when some times torn or stitches gone .It is better that everyone learn the basic stitching to do it in emergency. if you can stitch your dress you will be happiest when you were the dress which you stitch for yourself or you stitch for your children and when they were that.

If any of my clothes or my kids are in need of repair than I tend to do it myself though I am not the best at it. My grandmother tried teaching me but I never really caught on to it very well. She was great and could make just about anything but I am limited to mending clothes and that is about all that I can do. I have always wanted to be able to do other stuff but I guess it wasn't meant for me to do.

yes, i sew the clothes that needs some stitching myself. however, since i cannot thread the needle anymore, i need somebody to assist me on this one.
it cannot be avoided that clothes get torn from time to time. also, buttons just simply fly away.
when this happens nowadays, how i wish my daughter is around to do it for me. my two boys are with me at home but, i cannot rely on them to do some stitching, so i do it by myself. of course, the threading of the needle will have to be done by anyont of my two boys.
