How cross-stitching saved E3

Post by DuckyBelkins »

Okay so that's a slight exaggeration.

My friends and I were at E3, on the second day, and in the first hour of the day my friend's bag's strap started falling off. This was a HUGE bag. Not a bag he could just fold up and put away. It was a collector's item so he couldn't throw it away. So while we were waiting in a line, I pulled out my nifty cross stitch zip lock bag and started randomly stitching the strap back onto the bag.

I didn't think it would work, I didn't think it would hold. But not only did it hold the entire day but it continued to hold after he put several huge magazines in his bag too. His bag was heavy!

I don't know how to sew or anything, but needless to say, I was pretty proud of myself!

I saw it at the Nintendo press conference; I couldn't believe how perfect it was! Much better than Crafting Mama in terms of video games + crafts! I wanted to demo it but it got lost in the shuffle. I had almost too many appointments to get much in terms of demo time :(
