Don’t Be Lost In Clothing Crises

Candy Barrie Sisters Syndicate

It’s a tough world out there. If you don’t believe me, take a look at your clothes: buttons falling off, hem’s coming out, sweaters snagging, knits pilling, shirts staining, collars shrinking the list goes on and on.

When these clothing crises occur at the wrong time, which is practically all the time, there’s never a sewing kit or a stain remover to be found. That’s why I love this quick-fix Sew-vival Kit, designed to be stashed away in your hand or travel bag and forgotten, until you need it.

Sixteen save-you-in-a-pinch items are stored in a compact carrying case with each item in its own visible compartment. A 32-page emergency clothing repair guide is included as well.

A lifesaver for every woman on the road whether or not she sews, these kits are available at fabric stores, or order it direct by calling (800) 995-6551.
