F* you sewing machine… F you!
I hate sewing!
Stomp Stomp
Pout
Okay, so I dont hate sewing. I really enjoy it actually, that is, when the #!@ #@$ %$@#$% @#$%$# sewing machine works correctly. I have a serger on loan from my mom. Its badass, also, it hates me. Im working on a project for a friends baby shower but my machine keeps tangling the thread and making me want to cry. After much research and even more rethreading I got the thing working… It worked beautifully for 4 or 5 runs on scrap, but the first time I put my project near the needle it all went to hell. So I cleaned the string ball out, started over, put new thread in, ran a new scrap through… worked just fine. Put my project piece in and I really think I could see the machine wave its middle needle at me just before it jammed up again.
I got pissed off and abandoned the serger and went upstairs to use my plain old sewing machine. Put the thread in, did a test run… all is well. Put my stupid piece of black fabric under the foot and nothing happens, figured out the problem, tried again… the machine works, but the thread is not catching the bobbin so its not sewing anything. I put my scrap piece back in so i could figure out what was wrong… and guess what, yeah… it works! Put my piece back up there and the needle broke on the first stitch.
I moved over to LBs sewing machine, ran a scrap through… no problems. At this point I was frustrated because what would take me 10 minuets on a serger and 30 minuets on my machine is going to take me an hour on her old dinosaur (I love you honey!). I put my fabric into her sewing machine, push the lever to start the needle, watch as the needle dips down into the machine…. and comes up with no thread in it!!!!!!!!!! ARGHHHHHHH I unplugged the sewing machine and stomped downstairs to pout, and write this post.
So, I guess the problem is sewing hates me.
*Cry*
