I
leave this spot to share with you my many lessons I have learned
throughout the years, so that you too may learn from them.
My
most embarrassing lesson was many years ago. I will never forget this day.
I was in eighth grade and my family lived in Canada at the time.
It was field day and I wanted to wear something new. So I quickly made
myself a really cute pair of light blue denim overall pants trimmed in dark blue
thread (the top stitching was dark blue). I
even made a matching hat.
I must say, I looked pretty cute in that new outfit.
Everyone loved it and couldn’t believe I made it.
Well, we all ran outside to start our field day.
We were so happy to be outside for the day just playing and doing relays.
So we all started doing kart-wheels. Well, on my first kart-wheel my
pants split at the crotch seam with the loudest rip you every heard.
It seemed like the whole country heard
it. I
was so embarrassed.
Thank goodness I had a sweatshirt that I wrapped around my waist for the
rest of the day.
By the end of the day the rip was down to my knees. My friends and I
laughed so hard!!!
Lesson learned- Don’t
rush
your sewing and ALWAYS stitch the crotch seam TWICE for extra
reinforcement.
