sleepy…
tonight i made my first fabric dog collar… i choose a dark fabric for my first try since i know i’d have some hiccups while trying to convince my old sewing machine to sew through 12 layers of fabric/interfacing. i think i’ve figured out a few things to try to make collar number two better. i have to sew this box shape with an X through it two times per collar – the first one i went too slow on and the machine jammed. when it unjammed it spewed thread all over. i went fast on the second one (the visable one, phew) and it looks perfect.
i worked today… i work tomorrow. someone has to watch the puppies while you three-day-weekend having people are off having fun. i get paid time-and-a-half for tomorrow. i guess i should go to bed now that my web work is done. seeing as how i get up in 6 hours. yeah.
