I had enough sewing for the day…
I was getting mad …I couldn’t focus…
So,I switched it up for some crocheting….
It is making me relax….I’m not fussing over ripping seams out….not stressed over a collar for a jacket…or a mystery project…
Just me and my crochet hook……
I am working on a mystery project for my brother…
My brother paid for the material, but I am the one making it come alive…
It is tough working on it ,because I am putting my time and effort to this…and taking up time for my other projects…
All my brother cares about if it will make him money…I am getting frustrated…
I am almost done with this project…until someone wants one….I hope that I get something out of this too…
I think …I finally got it…
I have been practicing the button hole…
Look …I finally got it….
I didn’t give up….and stayed focused….
I am proud of myself!!!!
This mess is my sewing machine parts…
Half of them …I have no idea what they are..Believe it or not…
My late grandmother gave me my sewing… She never gave me any manual for the sewing machine…
I am learning the hard way….
As a beginner to the button hole….
I watched a tutorial….
I started to get my machine ready and started….and this happens…
Something isn’t right…something was telling me to look in my parts box for my sewing machines…. Look what I found….
And this what I was using
I am going to start over again ……posting pictures later
Today,for the first time in my whole life …
I am going to be using the button hole part of my machine …to make a button hole for the jacket….
I am going to be practicing first with other material…
Let’s hope it not too bad….
I might need a tutorial….. Ugh!
After writing my last post…
I went to my job to get some advice from my co worker…
Boy,I was lucky that she didn’t go on break..
She was able to help me understand on what I had to do…Trust me …we thanked her for her help….
We got sewing after we got home…here is the progress…
This jacket is driving me crazy….
Nothing is making sense….I lost count of how many times …I have used the seam ripper……
This pattern layout does not make sense at all….I am pulling my hair out( not literally)…
I refuse to give up…there is no tutorial online…. Nothing!!!! I need help with this!!!!!
I wish my Grandmom was alive!!!!
I am really frustrated wit this jacket….
It is more of the fact of the pattern instructions….
Apparently, it is a double flap ….makes no sense…..It is a McCall pattern…
This why I getting frustrated at …it doesn’t give a good description… Of what to do next…but put trim on the front….
Please help… if you used this pattern !!
My Son and I are working on his jacket…
We have all of the pieces cut out..
Right now,He is basting the interfacing to the fabric…
It is his first time hand sewing…
Next ,is the machine…
Very proud ,momma!!
