I looked for my last mending post regarding these jeans, apparently I hadn't posted about them. Let me correct that now. On November 2nd I worked on mending the worn fabric BF's jeans.

Mending Monday – Halloween
This isn't the mending that I was able to do on Monday, it is the mending I was able to finish since the last time I wrote to you about mending that I have had a chance to mention it.

That being said, this is only the fourth time I have had to put a button back on in all the years… Continue reading Mending Monday – Boots again…

Which is OK because my life has been fractured enough that I haven't been able to work… Continue reading 2018 Year End Review…
