Being an adult is so fun. The heating coil on our dryer is starting to go out. So fun when you have to dry a load two or three times just to have it somewhat dry.:barnie:he
Did you check your dryer vent outlet? I thought the heat element on my dryer was failing, but it turned out to be then vent outlet was clogged with lint! Nice easy free solution. I hope you get lucky and it's something little like that.

Well done. If you want to make your next patch job more durable, put a scrap of denim under the area to be patched. But, IMO, any patch job is far better than no patch job! This falls into the category of: If everyone who could, WOULD...

You did good! :) I few years ago a lovely couple we knew in S.A. came round to our farm. The wife told me quite happily how she went into the butchery and our butcher politely pointed out to her that her entire left butt cheek was hanging out, she ripped her jeans clean across... And she was wearing a g-string, if anything underneath :thShe was just Oh well! It happens! And went about her day and what needed doing until she got home to change... I was at a complete loss for words!
