RE: Housekeeping.

I think I’ve said this before, but your mother sounds like a dream. Do you sew? I still have spools of thread my mother acquired while working as a machinist for Jeswin Overalls in the late ’60s. I’ve no idea how, but her sewing bag has followed me for over forty years.

Sort:  

I never learned how to use the sewing machine, but I am ready with a needle whenever something needs hemming or tucking. I like to sew. It's very relaxing.

I think that's more than practical. I think there is more to that sewing bag than thread.

Thank you. Her birthday yesterday so I'm a bit nostalgic.
