did they ever...

Sometimes I wonder, did ______ century (in this case 18th) seamstresses ever get annoyed with garments in the same places I do now? Did she ever go "Drat I'm up to the eyelets! these buggers go on for days!" or "I really hate sewing sleeves!'

Clearly my brain is done with sewing eyelets. As I haven't been able to do more than a few a day due to school/work they feel never ending! Hoping to get them finished by the end of the weekend. Granted I also have to study for an exam on Monday...so we'll see how far I get.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least. And I'll be they got tired of preparing their winter garments in the summer too. Laps full of heavy wool must have been much worse before the advent of air conditioning.
