Pouch progress
I didn't get as much done as I wanted this weekend.  Saturday I was just plain tired.  I did work on quilting the pouch units, but I was having problems with the thread jumping out of the bobbin and breaking.  I changed the needle, I oiled the machine, adjusted the tension, but nothing seemed to help.  It was a real battle trying to get the red ones done.  I had no problems when I started on the blue ones so it had to have been that red thread that was the problem.  I did manage to get 11 pouches quilted.
Here is the stack of all the pouches ready for finishings.  There are 57.
My box of zippers I ordered on Thursday afternoon arrived Saturday morning!  That was crazy fast!  Once I finish quilting the last 8 pouch units, I will start sewing them together.
I saw a doe in the backyard looking for something to eat.  She is pregnant.
57!!! kinda like Heinz ketchup? that IS A LOTTA pouches - you're a pouch making machine, girlfriend!!!
ReplyDeleteSven refuses to accept any thread other than Aurifil in the bobbin or through his needle - he's a cantankerous old Viking, but i do love him
57 pouches! WOW!
ReplyDeleteI occasionally have a thread that won't behave too. It is aggravating. That is a lot of pouches to sew zippers into.
