I keep saying one day i will learn. Even just to hem my pants. my 28 inch inseam is still too short for some petite sized jeans. I never really bothered to learn, despite my mom's desire to teach me. I can repair a button hole, separated stitches, minor mends but nothing past a 3 on a 10 point scale of difficulty LOL. My mom does all my complicated mending for me. I wait usually give her a few things to hem at a time.
