Challenge Yourself for: 30 days

Tall folks aside, most of us spend considerable amounts of cash hemming and tailoring too-long trousers. Shortening pants is a useful skill and a solid building block for more complicated tailoring. Plus, being self-sufficient feels great. Since sewing clubs are springing up in cities nationwide, you don’t need to have your own machine to get started. Sometime this month, challenge yourself to learn this useful skill. You might enjoy sewing so much it becomes a hobby.

Very cool that this is a challenge because it is something I have been wanting to do. My husband and I are both short and so hemming is a must. I will definitely learn to do this in the next 30 days!!

I am going to attack my pile of mending today. I have a machine but rarely get around to using it. So, I have a pile of “to do’s” that I have been putting off to get to something else. Today, I will get to that pile!
