Checked in, massage booked for 5, tai chi booked for 6, dinner at 7.30, when am I supposed to find time to sew?

Over half way through cutting out. Nearly ready for tomorrow 😄

A lot of firsts here, some minor issues but as I'm missing a small bit important piece of the machine (needle plate spacer) and there were bobbin issues to contend with...I'm very happy with how this came out.

It's all in the prep work.🤣

First ever time embroidering a cap, missing a part that helps with stitch quality, my own self-digitised 3D Puff design....what could go right? 🤣🤣😬😬😬

I'm so happy with how this turned out. The file was just a free one from Hatch, accompanying it's blog on how to digitise for puff. Internet keeps saying that it's best to learn from watching the machine stitch a well digitised file, rather than starting from scratch, and it definitely was interesting (and quicker) to learn this way. Now...to start designing my own - what should I design first? 😊🪡👨🏻‍💻

Finally back to blogging having made my first (successful) t-shirt:

I have wanted to sew a t-shirt on an overlocker since I was 16 (20 odd years at the last count) and I've finally conquered my procrastinating impulses.
