#WIPWednesday: If it was any louder it would be a rock concert
Wednesday, 17 January 2024 09:35 pmI MANAGED TO FIX (MOST OF) THE SEWING MACHINE MAT IN POST! The stitch in the ditch is still an omnishambles, but I've managed to fix what ailed the pockets. Once again, I'm not straight and the lines I cut aren't either.
And my original plan of "Oh just use fold-over elastic to bind it, that's what you've got!" lasted exactly long enough for me to remember that I had a bias-tape maker, so uhhhhhhhh I learned a new skill! I made whatever the equivalent of bias tape is if you just feed jellyrolls through it instead of strips cut on the bias! I've pinned all of the binding on, and now I just need to actually sew it! And uhhhhhh remember that I don't know how to sew the ends together, so I need to learn how to do that first.
