Remember my title does state "New to Sewing"
Ok - I made a blooper on the binder tote last night. I am new at sewing - remember? I have to tell myself that too because I was on a roll thinking I was doing great. I was sewing the straps on - looking great! I'm finished and then I decide to see how a binder looks inside of it - but wait - I sewed the pockets on the other side where the binder slides into when I was sewing the straps on the other side!! Oh no! Yes I sewed those straps on so nicely too. Okay - so now comes that tool - the thread puller! At least I was working on "my" pattern tote and not the tote I am making for my friend. I havent started hers yet thankfully! Trial and error - I will do it! Now, I have to get to pulling some threads out.....

A friend share a blooper with me! Always glad to know your not alone
ReplyDeleteThat is good you can laugh at yourself…..I couldn’t count the times when I first started sewing that this same thing has happened to me. I will have to admit too, one time i was making a skirt and actually spent too much money on this beautiful blue material. The whole skirt was sewn on both sides and I took it off the machine and attempted to put my legs thru it to try it on to judge where the waistband needed to be placed, and I couldn’t get into the skirt, I had sewn the whole front to the whole back. By the time I seam ripped it all out, the material didn’t look quite as good as it did before.
