Sometimes people will ask me to do projects for them that are a little unusual or most others would think it should be thrown out.
A customer called and asked me to repair some down filled pillows and duvet given to him from a special family member. Its old and someone else tried to repair the pillows with the wrong fabric. Then they got a puppy and he tore the duvet. He threw it in a bag and it has sat for the last 3yrs. One day he thought he would give it another try again for some proper repairs. As you can see from the photo one whole pillow is in a bag the other not so bad, the rip in the duvet wasn't that bad either! Two brand new pillows and a touch up of a tear with a seam and presto he has his special blanket back.
So now when you ask a seamstress why she does some projects, sometimes its for sentimental reasons!
Cheers
Janet
