If Confucius could sew...

... he would have had a whole new list of sayings:

Confucius says

• no matter what fabric you buy, your customers will want the one that's run out
• you will run out of cotton half way through a fancy stitch
• the busier you are, the more likely it is that your overlocker will jam
• never underestimate the importance of ironing before you sew
• despite having ten different coloured pins, you will always drop the one that matches the carpet
