A corner for a guy's needle work

So many of the items in our daily lives are sew-able. A simple needle and thread changes the way you think. When an item breaks, you no longer think, "I guess I must buy a new one..." Instead, you think, "I guess I must fix it..."

How many of these everyday items rest for eternity in a landfill, because of a simple break that a needle and thread could have fixed? How many excess items were manufactured to make up for the forgetting of the humble needle and thread...?

NEW PATTERN ALERT!

if it's a skill, there's rules you can learn

if it's an art, rules are not your concern

make it fucked up or you won't make it

if it's already broken, you can't break it

anything can be fixed with gorilla glue

YO just got your messages, and-- oh hell yeah! If you'd be down to share the files, I would love to get to mess around with them! I've been using FontForge to try and digitize some in the past, with partial but growing success; I can make a font that'll work in GIMP, but not in MS Paint or Word or Publisher (...yet!)

My dream is to eventually figure out a way to digitize and release some of the fonts into the Public Domain; if you're cool with it, would it be all right if I tried using your digitized versions as a starting point for that? For all the ones I've been working on thus far I've been starting with the original fonts and then coming up with punctuation/lowercase characters/numbers etc to fill them out, like for some of my Samplerbot fonts.
