      @Matt I’m sure Katie would have loved this on her jeans 🤣
      It’s a new machine I was sampling. It’s actually a bar tacking machine with some limited embroidery. We could potentially add initials or simple short words to flat areas…needs to fit in a 40x60mm area.
      I’ll be posting some videos in the new year…

          Awesome idea @Lynne !
          I would love something as cool as that in a seldom seen part of a special piece.
          Look forward to your videos/suggestions/possibilities!

          The journey is the objective.

                    They're a very very old pair of these guys.

                    Still my favour pair I've owned.

                        Aaah the glamour of fashion…crotch repairs.
                        I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else though.
                        It really is the best thing, for me, to be able to revive a piece of clothing or fabric.

                          After years and years of corporate life, I have found my ikigai ️

                          I read a book about this concept years ago, I'm still searching for mine...

                          Have and idea of what I need to do, but I'm definitely stuck in the corporate comfort zone right now!

                              Have you given much thought as to what this hypothetical brand would specialise in?

                                  @Giles top secret, or is there anything you'd be willing to share?

                                  I'm sure after all these years in the game, you've identified some unfilled niches in the market...

                                          Probably a brand of fishing rods designed to look like common household items so they can be more easily hidden from wives.
