I did it!

I did it, today I had to use my sewing machine. I have a class tomorrow for Girl Scouts and one of the homework projects was to make a mess kit drying bag. I used a very heavy material and thread. I thought my machine was breaking down, it was making a lot of loud noise. But after I got done making my bag, I tried stitching a couple of cotton patches and the machine was working fine. I need to find a place to take my machine for service and I need to get some new needles, but it was working. Maybe next week I can get some more done. I only have four days of work and although I could use the money, I also need time to get things done around here. Nothing gets done here if I am not around to make everyone do the chores.
