She cut out the cloth and all I had to do was sew the pieces together to make my lovely pink polka dotted Bermuda shorts!!<BR/><BR/>My mother too had a fancier electric sewing machine, which made all my outfits until I went to college, but somehow, it didn't have the magic that the old machine with its huge metal wheel and pedal had!!Deepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05629301732033178347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5671536805876663540.post-35029349057426262802008-11-22T14:19:00.000+05:302008-11-22T14:19:00.000+05:30Had a wonderful laugh reading this.

Particularly the stuff about the threadbare tape, used as a skipping rope, tying of prisoners in games etc. I wonder, why, of all the various things we could appropriate , the measuring tape was always preferred . <BR/><BR/>And for some reason, when the outfit was ready, they would try it on us, and I always remembered being upset that the hooks and buttons were not yet put by then. (Always after we tried on stuff)....Ugich Konitarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15901335427613806798noreply@blogger.com
