What fun! Got my MJ badge today and LOVE the picture on my membership
certificate and my badge! What fun!

Now for the bad part. I absolutely hate to sew..I'll glue, iron-on, tape....whatever it takes NOT to sew! (I'd rather clean the chicken coop and shovel out horse manure from the barn.)

I love the badge so any ideas on what to do with it other than the
"s" word is totally appreciated. Hopefully this doesn't make me a bad Farmgirl Sister!!!! Ha!

I'm in my 50's so getting me to like sewing is out of the question!

Help, Farmgirls!!!!

No reason you can't glue iron on or what not to pretty up your badge. Add beads, color her in with fabric markers. whatever you heart desires to express that she is yours and you are a farmgirl sister! (I hate sewing buttons, so if at all possible, I'll hot glue those babies on!)

Thanks,
Guess I felt a little intimidated since my friend (M.J.'s Farmgirl Cheryl, who introduced me to MJ's) did such an elaborate job with fancying up her badge on a gorgeous denim jacket. Trust me ....it would be difficult to compete with hers!!!! OK...Ill get the glue and will feel much better!

Oh Carol.. You are so funny. Just make your badge anyway you want. But thanks for the compliment. BTW What is your sister number?
