Husband needs a changeout on a uniform patch. Most people take this in and take advantage of the affordable services offered by the military. For under $10 they can replace the whole thing, well, he has to buy the new patch first anyway...
I also have a great sweater dress that i love, but the seam has come apart on the side. I've had the dress for years, most people would just toss it and go buy a new $60 dress from a great discount store like TJMaxx. Nope. I'm gonna repair mine and wear it all season!

| ouch! big rip! |

| ahhh, much better! |
My favorite purse is literally bursting at the seams, probably because I fill it to the max with supplies for my kiddos as well as 'normal' purse things- you know, like stainless steel water bottles and full size hard-backed books, yeah, its a 'mom bag' for sure... i do love this brand, its affordable, the stylish-hippy-chic type that I so dearly love and at just $40-50 to buy a new one its pretty reasonable! BUT I'm going to repair this one instead, I think you figured that out by now.
A little hard work on my part- PLUS getting to show my preschooler how fun and easy it is to use a sewing machine I save my family about $120 today!
Do you have a sewing machine? and do you use it?
