For Kirsten
Thu ,17/02/2011Kirsten wanted to know what I was up to, tonight.
Mostly, I was being bored while waiting for things to finish installing and loading, but I also made these:
Yes, I am major proud of the fact that I made them with my own sewing machine, instead of borrowing the one that belongs to my mother. Not only does that make some sort of sick “you’re all grown up now” milestone for me, it also means I could sit down, sew, and be done in like 20 minutes.
Hers is ancient and a pain in the neck, and I swear it’s easier to do things by hand than to use it.
The ends are all straight and since it isn’t my mom’s machine, it didn’t do that THING hers does, where it tries to eat the fabric. Generally, I’m happy with the results.
