4. Being prudent and thoughtfull saves cleaning up a distastefull mess afterwards♥ A stitch in time saves nine more stitches to patch up the holes that will ensue from laying idle♥ CHEERS ♥
5. stitches. Years ago, when my Mother taught me how to embroider, she said these words. I asked about them, she said if I watch what I'm doing, & take my time, I won't make mistakes and or have to rework my stitches. It's like a carpenter saying, 'Measure twice, cut once.'
6. Pounds?
7. take preventive measures to lessen risk and exposure
8. Holy jumpers
9. Well Dave, back in the day............ A stitch in time saves nine. Was for the Rag A-se kids of war when clothes were hard to come by. Meaning, if you see a small Rip, mend it Now- or it will get bigger- and need Nine stitches-or more. ... ...... ......... ........ Just Nine rhymes with time.lol.
10. It is equal to ounce of prevention that is worth a pound of cure.
