Hour 9 Prompt 9<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n A Stitch in Time Saves Nine<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Stitches. You know, those things that happen<\/span><\/p>\n when you thread a needle and then draw it\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n through some fabric. If you have a tiny hole,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n mend it fast. If the button is about to fall off,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n add a few stitches to keep it on. If a seam has<\/span><\/p>\n lost a stitch or three, just go over the stitching.<\/span><\/p>\n But we don\u2019t do that any more. If the button\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n falls off or if the seam rips, just toss it away or<\/span><\/p>\n maybe put it in the\u00a0 Goodwill box. A stitch in<\/span><\/p>\n time might save nine, but very few will find\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n that out any more or even understand what it means.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hour 9 Prompt 9 A Stitch in Time Saves Nine Stitches.
