She even sewed wedding dresses, upholstered furniture, and made Barbie clothes. Oh, and there was the time she made matching dresses for herself, my sister, me, our aunt, and our cousin. Talk about spiffy. <BR/><BR/>Sadly, Jaded, none of these creations survive except in my memories. You can probably find a suitable ensemble for your M-I-L on QVC, though. <BR/><BR/>Tuesday, I could learn to change my oil any time, too, but lack of such knowledge doesn't make me feel inadequate. (It's not having a manfriend to do it for me that makes me feel inadequate.)intelliwenchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01872666573909696493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1243874013166160718.post-71725209715649283522009-01-11T20:17:00.000-05:002009-01-11T20:17:00.000-05:00I can do buttons, but only if abosolutely necessar...I can do buttons, but only if abosolutely necessary i.e. pants or top button on a shirt :-)Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09519879143568413067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1243874013166160718.post-40230451087584198702009-01-11T17:56:00.000-05:002009-01-11T17:56:00.000-05:00I could learn to sew any time, I could really I co...I could learn to sew any time, I could really I could (supressing feelings of immense non-good-enough-ness)Mirnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18155043949352546961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1243874013166160718.post-48195439667851183972009-01-11T13:24:00.000-05:002009-01-11T13:24:00.000-05:00A"hem", I am flattered.Obviously there are two iss...A"hem", I am flattered.<BR/><BR/>Obviously there are two issues in your life that are still bothering you. You need to give it up and move on.<BR/><BR/>Oh, do you still have the trousers and bolero...and would you consider selling them?
