I am over ironing my shirt, thrilled with my new accessory feet (more on that in a bit), and there is what is called a lockdown drill alarm. We have to turn off all the lights, lock ourselves in the classroom and be quiet. Now, coming from up north in West Virginia, I was use to the shelter-in-place drills, but not the lockdown. This was quite different, and I am not sure how effective. So, we all sat there in the dark, while people peered in through the outside to see if we were sitting there quietly. Then, it happened. The high school students burst out laughing. It was totally awesome. Needless to say, the lockdown was a funny success.
Back to sewing. The double Ds were down visiting, Deb and Don, my parents, that is our nickname for them. And, my mom asked me what I needed for school. Well, I said as a matter of fact, I could really use a walking foot for my Husqvarna machine. She took me to get one, and I am THRILLED at the results. I am working on a silk habotai slipover shirt, and I needed to topstitch the yoke with a walking foot, because the regular foot was causing puckering. Hard to see here, but smooth sewing as a baby's butt!
The package deal we got also included a 1/4" foot, metal rods for measuring inch separations on works and the most amazing free motion foot.
I love my Husqvarna. Thank you so much Lindsay!
