Murphy's Sewing Laws

I ran across these the other day via this link and thought I would share, since thy are all so true! Enjoy!

Murphy's sewing laws

• Fusible interfacings always fuse to the iron
• The serge only eats the customer's garment
• If you need 6 buttons, you will find 5 in your button box
• The seam you meant to rip out is invariably the other one
• When you are in a hurry, the needle eye is always too small
• The fabric you forgot to pre-shrink will always shrink the most
• The pattern you wanted to make again will have one key piece missing
• If you drop something out of your sewing basket, it will be your box of pins, with the cover off
• Whenever the construction process is going well, the bobbin thread runs out
• The magnitude of the goof is in direct proportion to the cost of the fabric
• Your lost needle will be found by your son, husband or brother-in-law, while walking around barefoot
• Facings tend to be sewn to the wrong side (Opposite sides attract)
• Collar points don't match, and you've trimmed all the seams
• The iron never scorches the garment until its final pressing
• The steam iron only burps rusty water on light silk fabric
• The sewing machine light usually burns out on Sunday
• Pinking shears get dull just by looking at them
• Gathering threads always break in the middle
• The scissors cut easiest past the buttonhole
• Matching edges don't
  
• You will spill your pin box once per garment.
• As yee sew, so shall ye rip
