I made my self a skirt today from a Brown Paper pattern. I did the straight one. After doing all the seams and waist band I pressed in the hem and came upstairs to hem it by hand. DH was watching and suddenly blurted out,"Why are you sewing by hand, wouldn't it be better on the machine?" I explained that I prefer hand hemming on some things and I enjoy doing it that way. He had this puzzled look on his face and gave me a kind of sheepish okay. I just sat there and giggled for a few minutes and went on and finished what I was doing. The skirt looks good. Unfortunately I don't have a digital so no pictures. Some day I'll get one I hope. Juno
