The zipper on my favourite fleece jacket broke. I really don't want to throw it out or pay an exorbitant amount to have it professionally replaced so I will attempt to replace the zipper myself. I am unable to actually remove the stitching holding it in so I cut off the teeth, will somehow attach binding tape to the front lapels and attach a zipper to them. It may look a little hinky (is that a word and does it have an inappropriate meaning?) when it's done but it will make me happy to keep it out of the landfill. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Did a little sewing done on the 3rd Torah tie back. I just needed the push to get started. And yesterday's lunch and shmooze presentation by Shelley on stabilizers gave me an idea. I'll let you know if it works.
We were at my mother's for lunch with my cousin visiting from Israel. Except my cousin didn't show. There was a misunderstanding. So while we were out, we stopped off at Sew Sisters and I bought their last Northcott world map panel.
And I found clarinet fabric so I couldn't resist.
That's all for today, folks.
