Hi ello-sims! I just wanted to say I love your defaults - my game is filled with them and I really appreciate you making them! Can I ask as well - in post/676804579960160256 you mentioned that teen/elder versions of the guy outfit might be coming soon. Is there any chance you're still working on that because my South Asian guys have nothing to wear haha! Anyway thank you so much for all your hard work! :)

So in a tragic turn of events my sewing machine ate shit and is now broken, I work from home for a reenactment costuming company and need a sewing machine to make money. Any little bit helps.

I’d just moved to New York from Canada, so maybe I wasn’t quite used to hearing people referring to soft drinks as “soda”. (Most of my Canadian friends called it “pop”) Or who knows! Maybe this person ripped their shirt and actually was expecting to find a public use sewing machine somewhere in the dorm! I’ll never know for sure.

I picked this machine and table up at an estate sale this morning! I’ve never heard of a Bob McDougal machine. Does anyone know anything about them?

But stop, let me see your work. Your little fingers are very handy with a needle. Very pretty indeed; very pretty work. What small stitches. You shall hem and mark all your papa's handkerchiefs, and very soon you shall work a muslin frock for yourself.
  This is a snippet from a pre-Civil War education advocate Nathan Guilford from his book entitled: The Western Spelling Book: Being an Improvement of the American Spelling Book by Noah Webster which he published in 1831. Such a snarky subtitle, isn’t it?
In addition to offering up training in spelling and reading using a phonetics approach, Guilford offered all kinds of stories. They were meant to teach children general knowledge about the world around them, and the world far away too, so it covered all kinds of farm animals and exotic animals. It also made a point of teaching children to be good, to be kind, and to be dutiful. 
You can tell that I was not thinking like a dutiful daughter, as all I could think while reading was: “So, if I really mess up my stitching, can I skip hemming dad’s hanky?”  But then I realized I would not earn the right to make my own muslin frock if I took that course.
Notice this was at the time without sewing machines, so every stitch was made by hand, and the process was tedious. When sewing machines appeared, women whooped with joy and could not wait to get their hands on them.

The week in review
Monday the 27th my aunt and uncle were still here, so it was kind of a work day and kind of a host day. Luckily I was working from home and a handful of higher-ups were out at conferences or on vacation, so few people noticed that I was slow in answering my emails.
Tumblr media
I realized that night that the pattern I had been fiddling with started with the wrong measurements. So I painfully unraveled it all back to the foundation row, re-balled the yarn barf, and sadly started over. At this point, if I run into another mistake, I may just have to roll with it because I do not want to un-do this project a second time!
Tuesday 28th was Tiabeanie's final class of level 3 obedience training. We've had her for about 9 months now, and she has really blossomed from the dog that the shelter knew, that the fosters knew, and that we knew when we first got her. She is sweet and smart and sassy, loving and cuddly, and also unfortunately still pretty anxious about being away from me. Having training together has really helped our bond and trust for me to be able to move into things like cutting her nails and giving her baths with less fear and fuss (she still doesn't like them though) and I just know that the next big hurdle will be addressing her separation anxiety.
Tumblr media
For now though, I love the training place and am excited to move onto the more fun stuff!
Wednesday the 29 was a full and flexible day! Started with a 2 mile walk around the lake with a friend who is babysitting a greyhound! I wish we had a properly fenced place for her to run because I would love to see her dash about and play with Tiabeanie, but most dog parks don't have the 10 foot high fences recommended for speedsters and leapers like sighthounds. Then home for laundry and chores and after the fur babies had lunch Andrew and I set out to check out the county fair...only to learn at the entrance that no pets were allowed. So with Tiabeanie in the back seat we pivoted to Main Street and just people watched while eating pizza.

When we got home from lunch the power was out (father-in-law is working on the wiring as he preps for re-insulating our attic) so I busied myself with a project that didn't need power - a carding board. Not to be confused with cardboard, this style of fiber prep was the predecessor to todays blending board. I nailed a patch of carding cloth to the underside of my fiber picker to have a more all-in-one multi-use tool, then wrapped some carding cloth around a pair of handles I had connected at the ends for a (very ugly) type of comb to pull over the board. Then I finished carding some of the llama fluff I had washed and picked and now it's ready for spinning. I'm really glad to be done with this project as it is a tool that can help me move forward with so many other projects!
Thursday the 30th was apparently uneventful enough that I took no pictures or really noted what I did during the day. Mostly just remoted in to work and caught up on emails while folks were away.
Friday July 1st however was a big deal. For starters, I forgot it was Friday and missed my therapy call! I had stuff to talk about too so I'll have to make some notes to remember it through to the next appointment. I also was able to log off early from work and pack up some clothes, crafts, and my rig to head over to a friends house for a holiday weekend LAN party!
Tumblr media
My rig is much older than everyone else's and programmed for much different tasks. While folks set up their PCs and gaming laptops, I took a select corner of the folding tables in the living room to set up a restored Singer featherweight. Through the whole weekend I listened to people game while sewing a yukata, spinning yarn, and making progress on two crochet projects. I spent two nights at the LAN before burning out hard on all the noise, shuffling around, and children, so I packed up Sunday afternoon, collapsed on the spare bed at home for a nap, then stress ate 2/3 of a pack of Oreos for dinner. Not the best way to end the weekend, but all in all it was pretty fun and it was nice to see so many people and also make a lot of progress on my projects.
