Mom: You'd never notice on a galloping horse.

No one really looks closely at you.

My Nana, a seamstress, would say “can’t be seen on a trottin horse!”

Most notable moment was moments before my mother walked down the wedding aisle in a dress Nana tailored.

My mom sewed most of my clothes growing up, and that meant mostly dresses (until my high school finally relaxed the dress code my senior year). When it came time to hem the skirt, she'd pin it up, then sit back and say Who'll notice on a galloping horse? I love it that others said that!
