I want to complain about a crafter

I’m divorcing my husband but this is about my MIL. She is a decent sewer. She can make things to a pattern. I cannot. I knit and crochet and cross stitch, but beyond simple hand sewing techniques, I’m not a sewer.

But my MIL drives me insane. She insists on making the world’s ugliest quits. She just sews together whatever leftover fabric she has, with no consideration as to consistency in fabric, size, colour, anything.

She makes children’s clothing and expects bespoke prices.

And she never stops complaining about the price of fabric.

I’ve been forced to take so many terrible items from her that no one would want.

I recently learned she has metres and metres of fabric and she keeps buying more because she never organized it and doesn’t know what she has.

I’m finally wiggling free of her insanity via divorce but I just needed to complain to people who would understand, just this once.

Thanks for listening.
