Mending…DONE! by randystreat

Mending…DONE!

Last sewing related photo for awhile. Unpacked the box, checked everything, enclosed, read the manual and off. I went for an afternoon of mending. Seven towels in all. Thanks for your perseverance and understanding.
Well done!

You are far more industrious than I am if you are mending towels! Nice photo of your finished work. Are you using your new machine?
August 31st, 2024  
You did a good job there!

Good job. I procrastinate on simple mending until the last minute…or after the button falls off. Lol!

Thank you my cheerleaders. I ended these towels because they are still thick and absorbent. For some reason they all started to fray on the selvage edges and several had the hem stitching come loose. Why buy new ones. And I did use my new machine and it worked well.

It always feels so good to finally finish a project like that. Good for you!

@olivetreeann You're right. The towels have been sidelined for awhile now. Used one of the green ones this morning. Yeah!
@kjarn Thanks.

Congratulations on immediately putting your new machine to work! I totally agree in principle to the "mend rather than buy new" philosophy. But I don't mend (REALLY, REALLY don't sew) and also don't buy new (except for the ones for the newly redone bathroom back when that was done). I just use the towels into rags. Why mend when you can let them fall apart? 🤣

@mcsiegle I have more rags than anyone needs. Why not mend if they aren't ready to be rags and one has the tools to do so.
