Irritating. Part 2.

 Why are the tags informing us of fabric content, washability, and sometimes even size, hidden throughout the garment?  It's a like scavenger hunt.  Some manufacturers insert four tags, each stating info I don't need, in print so small it's unreadable, in seams that I need to search for.  Where the hell is the fabric content!!!  A few garments contained what sounded more like a food than fabric.  Does that require hand washing with gourmet water?  I don't want to upend clothing on the store racks to find out if I'm too lazy to care for it.

..................

So here's the house start ... 645 for roof, 3828 for trim, 422 for siding.  Not stitched yet but a sample patch was very nice, confident they will work.  

Quite small on this 46 count and I'm taking your advice and adding a bird over the tree. 

Thank you!

Have a good evening!

Marly, I’m liking this more each time you show it. I, too, love the change you made to the house. I’m as unhappy as you about the speed that summer is going by. I’m recovering from a nasty fall I took last week so lots of dental work and laying low. But, extra stitching time! Hope you’re feeling better. Have a good evening. Cherie in WI

I literally laughed out loud about the tag thing...I share your frustration. And I love all the little hieroglyphic symbols they use to tell you what can and can't be done... At first I thought no problem - I have a degree in anthropology after all...but, heck, even I can't decipher them. Like Cherie, I am liking this stitch more and more every time I see it. Your changes are perfect! ~Robin~
