Get a scrap of material, and while you are watching a favorite show, try some of these.  You need to practice so that you can use the stitches when you need them.  Traditionally, they won't be pretty at first, but after a few stitches, you will get the hang of it!  Impress you family and friends!  It is surprising how much people marvel when you can quickly fix a garment.....because many of them have never seen it done.  Increase your self-reliance skills while showing your family and the Lord that you are thankful for the goodness that you have been blessed with.
