A week or so ago I saw one of the girls at school with a pencil case made out of zips. She had purchased it in Neds. I had a good look at it and I thought it was a great idea. I went into Spotlight and bought many zips. I paid for the many zips and it cost multo multo money. I am sure the Ned's pencil case did not cost her a fortune.
My pencil case has not only cost a fortune but is also not finished because I am not logical and cannot for the life of me work out how to even up the ends of the zips plus line the inside so you cannot see the rough edges.I am reduced to begging someone to come and help me finish it off.
In spite of my great enthusiasm my actual sewing ability is zero. I even had to fight the machine by putting different feet on it and it still played up. I probably would have been better off sewing the whole thing by hand. Although what would be the point of sewing something by hand when I have a nice machine to do it (better/faster) well you get the drift I am sure.
No matter how many times I think I am clever enough to do stuff I need to take a reality check. Repeat after me, I am NOT a genius, I am NOT a genius. I am NOT a genius.
