Sophie looked over at her projects. She found a clean piece of fabric that had not been sewn. She then searched for a spool of thread and a needle. "Would you mind holding this for me?" she asked.

Meg walked up to her to get the fabric for her "yeah sure" she said as she got them. She waited for sophie to get what she was looking for.

Sophie nodded and picked up the same supplies for herself. She smiled and turned back to face Meg. "Take your thread and pull about an arm's length," Sophie advised. She reached under her bed and pulled out a pair of scissors.

Meg did what sophie asked her. "Like this?" she asked she hoped she did okay. It was so dumb. Meg knew how to handle a gun but she couldnt sew.

"That's right." Sophie said gently. She brought the scissors up and cut the thread nearest the spool. "Now, we try to slip it into the needle." She expertly slipped the thread into the eye of the needle.

Meg looked how sophie did it as she looked at the needle. "Okay.." after her second try she got it. "Done haha" she said

Sophie smiled. "And you thought you wouldn't be good at this." Sophie teased. "Now, fold the string in half and wrap it around the point of the needle a few times. We're going to push that little wrap down the length of the needle and it will make a knot at the end." Sophie slowly showed Meg the movements that she had explained.

Meg chuckled as sophie teased her and watched her movements. "Its more complicated then it looks" she admitted as she tried to do what sophie said. After a few attemps it worked out .. Okay not horrible but not good either

Sophie smiled and helped tighten up Meg's thread. "It's easier with practice." Sophie said. She picked up the swatch of cloth that she had given Meg. She picked up a piece of cloth and lightly drew a line on it. "Here. Push the thread in along this line. It's easier with a sewing machine to keep your lines straight but this helps too." She then pinned it down so the cloth wouldn't move on Meg before passing it back.

Meg gave her a smile "thanks" she said as sophie helped her getting the it straight. She looked at the line she had drawn. "So I just have to follow the line.. I hope i can do that" she mumbled as she did what sophie told her and started

"Tiny stitches help the fabric stay together better. The smaller the better," Sophie advised. "And don't worry too much, this is just a practice piece."

Meg nodded in understanding. "Okay I'll remember that tiny stitches got it" she said as she tried stitching. It was harder then it looked but she managed to somehow not completely fail.

"We'll make a tailor out of you yet," Sophie encouraged. She set her sewing aside, helped Meg readjust her hold on the fabric and smiled. "Better?"

Meg chuckled "that will take some time" she joked as she saw how sophie helped her. "Yeah thanks, so besides doing things like this do you got any other hobbies?" she asked her
