15 Minute Challenge - Week 24

Tuesday - nada
Wednesday - zilch
Thursday - sewed together rows 1 and 2 of the byg duvet cover
Friday - nothing
Saturday - added rows 3 and 4 to BYG
Sunday - started to make two potholders .. machine went goofy.  need to get it serviced.
Monday - took the sewing machine to the shop; bought 2 yards of fabric.

What was wrong with my sewing machine was me (almost one of those, it didn't work because it wasn't plugged in sort of moments).  Apparently I didn't have the bobbin threaded properly so the tension was totally whacked, but it wasn't actually broken. It had been a while since it had been serviced so I left it there anyway.  When I go to pick it up, I'm going to get some other thread.

My sewing machine is back home.  I haven't done any sewing tonight but will work on the potholders tonight just to finish something.

Check out Life In Pieces to see what everyone else has been up to this week.

Not a bad week, progress was made.

I hate those "did you plug it in moments?". I've had a few of those over the years.

well you made progress! I actually only sewed twice last week myself although it was for an hour +.

Your post reminded me that its been a good two years since my machine had a service....

You still managed to sneak in some sewing this week in spite of your "moment". Well done!
