Weronikia, if you're a jeans & T-shirts kinda gal, I've noticed some machine
embroidery down the side seams of jeans, how about some lace? Perhaps an insert at
the side seam of jeans or shorts coming from the hem up so you don't have to do the
whole side seam. I am managing to modify Torchon patterns to a point or diagonal
easily enough. I start with the bobbins wound in pairs and this gives me a nice
starting edge. But many bookmark patterns have points or nice starts, then the edge
of the lace you tied off to finish could be hidden under the hem of the jeans/shorts.

man at the right time for babies ;o)
PS I belong to a historical recreation group called "Society for Creative
Anachronism". My lace teacher, who lives down in San Diego, California, does lovely
lace, and makes enough to do Cavalier style dresses, like the ones worn in the Three
Musketeers movies.... It takes a tolerance for repetition which can be learned (I do
large amounts of the same pattern of embroidery), but watching (or mostly listening
to) a good movie at the same time helps.
