Peace Mend Love

There is something to be said when you find yourself telling someone what you want to do. However, it does not become exciting until you ACTUALLY do it. Well, I have actually started sewing lessons. I find myself with a day off from work, a perfect beach day at that, and I am on my third floor struggling to create pockets in a skirt I have been working on for a good month.
I have successfully patched up 4 pair of my fathers favorite jeans. I used lime green thread and random zig zag stitches to complete the task. My father loved the fact that he could wear his first pair of jeans I had fixed the next day from when he had given them to me. I returned from work and found 3 more pair waiting on my bench for me.
While I sit here happily struggling to make the perfect pockets for my first and hopefully wearable item I'm thinking I COULD make a little business out of these nick- knack jobs. However, I'm sure not every customer would be color blind.
