8:39 am
hokie carla
Gotta get back this afternoon for a grad party. We have our motorhome here for a month and had to come and get some stuff for a grad party at our house later this week. Loading stuff in my car between rains.
8:39 am
hokie carla
I hope it stops raining tonight for that party!
8:40 am
MLFAN17
hokie I wouldn't get your hopes up too high if I were you unfortunately
8:41 am

8:46 am

Planned outdoor events should always have a rain contingency. Especially in early June.
8:46 am
hokie carla
Lol, they’ve been planned for a while. Mine on Fri at least shows 0% chance of rain.
8:46 am
MLFAN17
yeah but this weekend doesn't look good for those kinds of events
8:47 am
MLFAN17

8:47 am
hokie carla
Tonight’s party hosts found a big tent to rent so should be fine unless monsoon, which it may be
8:47 am

MLFAN17

8:50 am
hokie carla
So, I brought my serger and some fabric with me to make a new dress for my son’s graduation. Forgot the power cord/foot pedal! At least I got it cut out.
8:51 am
MLFAN17
hokie oops
8:51 am
MLFAN17
hokie can you hand stitch anything else instead?
8:51 am
hokie carla
I think we are supposed to get 6+†between yesterday and Tue.
8:52 am
MLFAN17
we don't have any rain coming down at the moment hubby said he saw 100% today
8:52 am
hokie carla
Well, the top of the skirt pieces are supposed to be basted so I could’ve done that but I’ll just wait til I get home.
8:53 am
MLFAN17
when is your son's graduation?
8:54 am
hokie carla
Fri. It’s a fast sew, I already made one for fitting purposes, but I also need to start party prep!
8:54 am
MollyL
I have high regard for anyone who can make their own clothes. I am for shit with a needle and thread.
8:54 am
MLFAN17
molly i cant even sew on a damn button
8:55 am
welki
me too - when my first daughter was a baby, i tried to make her a sewn doll. it looked like mr. bill
8:55 am
MLFAN17
hokie do you have one of those fancy sewing machines?
8:55 am
welki
(buttons, i can manage)
8:56 am
hokie carla
Well, I have 3 different machines that do different things. I just started clothes about a year ago. I feel I can do anything with instructions. But I do spend a lot of time ripping seams.
8:56 am
welki
(and can crochet, needlepoint and knit - go figure)
8:56 am
MLFAN17
welk LOL I would have loved that
8:56 am
welki
heh - i didn't intend for it to look like mr. bill, mlfan
8:56 am
MLFAN17
welk i cant do any of it
8:56 am
MLFAN17
welk you are no fun
8:57 am
hokie carla
I have a fancy machine, a serger (or overlocker if you’re elsewhere in the world) for constructing seams, and a coverstitch for hemming things (if you’re wearing a t-shirt, look down at the double lines on the bottom)
8:57 am
MLFAN17
hokie has 3 different machines for different things? you need o splurge on a Brother sewing machine
8:57 am
welki
au contraire -i'm tons o' fun, just not with a sewing maching *lol*
8:58 am
MLFAN17
hokei that is so cool
8:58 am
hokie carla
I just sold a brother, actually. It was just a basic entry-level.
8:58 am
welki
*packing up all the pants that need hemming and heading to hokie's place*
8:58 am
MLFAN17
i watch those sewing shows on the local channels wish i could do a lot of it but at the same time its too tedious for me
8:58 am
hokie carla
I also have 2 others I
8:58 am
hokie carla
I’m trying to sell!
8:59 am
hokie carla
An embroidery one and a semi-industrial that only does a straight stitch.
8:59 am
MLFAN17
hokie i bet they will enjoy that sewing machine:)
9:00 am
MLFAN17
hokie straight stitch as in very basic sewing machine?
9:00 am
hokie carla
I have 6 words left, 2 of which are 4 letters. You’d think I could figure those out. Anyhoo, break in the rain, so I’m loading stuff in my car again!
9:00 am
hokie carla
And yes
9:01 am
MLFAN17
hokie ohh congrats on 6 words left have fun with your stuff
