As the back is an expanse of grey, I was a bit anxious about any snaggles showing up, but it's all good. I even chose to unpick a couple of wonky areas!! A first, (Rhonda are you proud?), but as it's for my Dad, I really wanted it to look as perfect as my 'old' machine will allow, (2 weeks and counting old boy!).
OK, so he did have a tantrum and I had to unpick a bit more; your days are numbered my Brother, so behave or you won't even be a 'spare'! Look what he did the other evening...
Well it's the weekend, so I'll be cramming in as much sewing action as possible over the next 48 hours... I might even spend my £25 Premium Bond winnings - Woo Hoo!!!
Happy Weekend everybody x
don't ya just hate when that happens and its always when you are near the end or tired! Fi
ReplyDeleteHope you had a spare needle. Despite buying them in packs I never seem to have one when I really need it. Happy sewing weekend. Mine involves dance practice, and dance rehearsals, etc. Joy!
ReplyDeletelol unpicking wonky sucks, did a hell of a lot of that the last few days myself! Here's to a weekends sewing that doesn't need the seam ripper for both of us!
ReplyDeleteHadley are you getting a new machine? So exciting!
ReplyDeleteAnd I had to pick out stitches today too- boo! Hate that!
Yes, yes, definitely straighter than mine!
ReplyDeleteLove that print in your backing, what is it? And what machine are u going for, it's so exciting to get a new one :-)
