Mending

My confession: I haven't touched my mending pile in years (I think 2). Certain things that are really worth fixing still get put in there, but it's been a very long time since anything came out of there and put back into a drawer. I finally delved into the stack last Sunday afternoon. I got so excited as I went along that I ended up stitching away until the pile was half diminished.
What a great feeling! I mended half of my accumulated fixer-uppers!! Nice, good-as-new items, ready to be used by the excited persons who happen to fit them by now!
I looked through the second half of the pile to see what each thing needed and I'm all set to tackle the rest soon. Hurray!

Hooray for the half-finished mending pile! I'm so glad to see a picture of the finished items. I know what a good feeling that is! Mom
