When I was in middle school we HAD to take home economics and part of it was a few weeks of sewing.  Well, I had NO interest in anything like that. I spent a lot of those few weeks doing some major socializing. Our final project was to have a completed apron that we sewed.  Sooooo...I had to think fast and went straight to the one who I knew would not let me down...that's right...my sweet Grandma. She sewed the entire apron for me. I was relieved! Well, my home ec teacher was more aware than I realized...she wondered how this perfect apron got done so quickly??!! The A work that my grandma did, only got me a C on my apron project.
Anyway, thumbs up to the ladies that can use that machine and needle...
give me some cards, beer, and a grill with my bros and I am good to go.

Jason, sadly, we had to cancel.....so there were no crashers, either! But we WILL reschedule the extravaganza....SOON!
You should be ashamed, having Your Grandmother make that apron! I'm surprised You didn't have to make it in the classroom! When I was in HomeEc, we couldn't take our projects out of the classroom.......she KNEW!

And I think it would be fun ANYway for You non~stitchers to come on and just sit and chat.....
