Some sewing has been going on this past week...although my machine is being frustratingly erratic. Sometimes it sews well, other times the bobbin thread breaks or the bobbin jams...I am wondering if it is my use of cheap sewing thread causing thread breakage mid seam? Or an upper thread tension problem? Or the need for a new needle?
Whatever it is, I am feeling so frustrated that last night I considered packing in the sewing and taking it all to the charity shop! My sewing time is soooo limited now that it is doubly annoying when things go wrong. Last night I sat unpicking the neckband for the Ottobre tunic (pictured in top image). The pattern calls for a slight stretching of the neckband when fitting. No way was mine long enough even with major stretching so I unpicked it, needing to go back and recheck my pattern tracing. Grrrrrrr....does anyone else go wrong like this?
