Drive-by blog post #4

Finishing up some binding while my handy men install new lighting in my sewing room.

I dropped the bobbin case for my long arm and couldn't find the backlash spring.  I found an eBay seller that was offering five cases, with springs, for $29.99. That sounded like a deal since the spring alone would be $4 plus shipping.  Now I can have a couple cases for the long arm with different tensions already set up. Happy dance.

I made up another sweater tonight. Belle wanted a sweater, too. Now, Reese and Belle have sweaters.

Since they often play rough, I don't see these lasting much more than a single winter, if that long.  For the record, they are rarely this subdued. Usually they are like whirlwinds made of fur.

Since my work-horse Pfaff is in the shop (regular service is necessary) I made these with my Baby Lock serger, which never gets enough love.

Created with the great tutorial put together by the Crafty Gemini.

I stitched up this quick dog sweater in about 20 minutes after dinner. 

Check out the great video tutorial the Crafty Gemini shared and I used to make this simple sweater.
