I don't like getting into political discussions as a rule but have any of you thought for one minute where our future is heading with a muslim president? Or do you guys not care that our freedoms will be taken away slowly so you won't even notice? Or is it all right to call having to cover our heads a fashion statement? Where are all the feminists when you need them? They'll be the first to critisize someone for covering their head if they call themselves christian but if they're muslim then it's just a religious thing. Come on people wake up and smell the hypocricy! I'm an American Citizen that's what I'm proud of, Land of the Free because of the Brave. The pledge doesn't say "to the Republic" for nothing that's what this nation was founded as if you don't like it pack up and go home!

Any ideas on how to keep it from scrathing. I love linen rayon blends, which at this moment is all I can afford, and I've made several pants and things with this linen blend but I have one pair of pants that cuts up my waist every time I wear them. There are thousands of tiny little needle like fibres sticking out of the fabric is there anyway of shaving them off or should I just line the inside of my pants at the waist?
