It Was Going To Be A Bib
This was supposed to be a bib. And it was supposed to say My First Halloween. Everything was going along fine until the thread broke. I rethreaded and started again and the thread broke again. So I rethreaded again and the thread broke again. I rethreaded one more time, hit the start button and watched the thread break yet again. Only this time I saw that the hoop wasn't moving so I looked under it and saw the jam. Not a pretty sight and not something that is easily fixed.
I'm feeling pretty frustrated because I haven't made anything in 3 weeks. The sachets I made yesterday didn't turn out either. One of them started shredding at the seam when I turned it right side out and the other one was too small to even turn. I was making them out of a vintage hankie and there isn't much of it left! It was really pretty too.
Oh well! Tomorrow is another day. And I will make something I'm proud of!!

ReplyDeleteI think you write pretty well and encourage you to write longer, more complex narratives that explore an idea or, perhaps, explain some realization that you've had.
You have a lot to say and practice will only improve your writing.

I've those days too: nothing seems to work! But like you said, tomorrow is another day. Hopefully threads won't break again :)

I hate it when that happens. There was a time when it seemed like that would happen more often than not when I was sewing. Somehow I got the hang of that crappy machine, and to think, now I want a NEW ONE...
ReplyDeleteI recently bought an industrial serger and I have spent so much time trying to make it work it is ridiculous.
