Asking a quilter to mend,
is like asking Picasso to paint your garage!!
I love this saying and use it to get out of mending, though it never works!!

Yep, that's it exactly!!!!!!!!! It took me 40 minutes to take out a zip to replace and even longer to replace the wretched thing!

Best wishes!

How right you are! My mending start at the top of the basket only to find it's self at the bottom by then it's out of fashion.
