C M C M Y K B4• The World • Monday, February,18,2013 Y K The magic DILBERT of my missing sewing kit It wasn’t that big of a deal, really. Still, I felt a FRANK AND ERNEST twinge of sadness whenev- er I thought about it because it’s something I really liked a lot. I EVERYDAY made CHEAPSKATE the small zippered pouch, all by hand — every last THE BORN LOSER stitch. I wouldn’t call it a work of Mary art, Hunt although Iwas quite proud of the clever piecing and homespun appearance. I filled the little pouch with my most prized hand sewing supplies: Tiny gold ZITS scissors in the shape of a stork that were so sharp they cut perfectly all the way to the end of the beak. The only thimble I’ve ever found that fit perfect- ly. A small magnetic needle holder filled with the finest German stainless steel sharps in a variety of sizes. And a tiny container of applique pins and two spools of thread just the CLASSIC PEANUTS right size and shape filled the remaining space in the sewing kit. It’s been years since my THE FAMILY CIRCUS sewing kit went missing. I looked from time to time, always consoling myself that it would turn up. It had to. Sewing kits don’t get up and walk away. Soon, my casual attempts turned to all-out searches and eventually to excava- FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE tions. I emptied drawers, and looked in nooks and crannies in every room of the house. From time to time, I considered making a new pouch and refilling it with all the right items. I came this close to ordering a new pair of stork scissors. Wow, I didn’t remember them being that expensive. I just couldn’t ROSE IS ROSE do it. I couldn’t bring myself to admit the originals were hopelessly lost. I have considered that there is a lesson in all of this that I needed to learn. And I’m certain it has to do with the unimportance of things compared to people. It’s just a sewing kit, I kept telling myself — a tiny treasure that must have fallen into the wastebasket LUANN or somehow got scooped up into a donation bag. It’s not like I lost a child or a close friend. I still have my home, my family and so many things in my life that bring me so much joy. Over the years, that lit- tle sewing kit has prompt- ed lots of “going through” and cleaning out. I have pared down our closets, and given away furniture GRIZZWELLS and household items we don’t need to others who do. And that felt good. One day I was cleaning up a desk I no longer need- ed to give to a friend who would find it useful. At the last minute, I decided to check all the drawers just to make sure theywere empty and clean. Right there in the small drawer on the right was my little sewing kit — exactly where I put it so it would always be handy. I got my sewing kit back. MODERATELY CONFUSED KIT ’N’ CARLYLE HERMAN But more than that, I expe- rienced something I don’t really understand but believe with all my heart: It is in giving that we receive.
