Who Needs a Stinkin’ Sewing Machine?

Not me, that’s who. Decided that there had to be a way to make the privacy screen work, even if I couldn’t sew the two sides together (we wanted it to look nice on both sides). So I took my fabric, faced it together, and tied it to the new posts Mr. Kate and Bush Boy attached to the deck earlier this summer. Two barbeques and a party later, I’m much pleased! We’ve taken it down now, as we don’t want it getting wrecked in the winter storms.

For me this was a great lesson in adaptation. It may not have been as tidy and neat as I wanted, but better it was there to be used than sitting in a closet somewhere.
