Sewing? Jesus... :fart-1:
All depends on what you do with it. Knowing your way around a needle and thread can be useful.
Flowers on your goretex kit? Errrr, I'll pass.
Nice set of custom bike bags? Not a bad idea.
Took me forever to do the stitching on my modified tank bag by hand. Hurts too, pushing the needle through all those layers of thick fabric.
Would've been so much easier on a decent machine. But the result works very well even if it's not the prettiest.
Or were you going to ask the missus to put some straps on the sheepskin seat cover?
(Watching it on tv is going a bit far though. Then again, bakeoff is fun. Though it helps that that's usually accompanied by some home baking.
