Reference Number: ID-10-T

Finally got a sewing machine about 2 weeks ago. It's a Singer...the most basic one since I won't be needing all the extra features.

Tested it at the store and it worked perfectly. But of course it was a different story once I got home and used it. The thread kept bunching up and it was VERY frustrating. Sampai sakit belakang duduk situ trying to figure out what was wrong.

So this past weekend, we took the sewing machine to the store to see what the problem was. The lady started to sew with it and of course it worked like a charm! gaaah...So I had a few tries on it and it worked perfectly too. It seems that I wasn't threading it right. There's one part of the thread channel where I had to slightly pull the thread until it goes into the pre-tension thing. So yes, problem solved. Case filed under ID-10-T. In case you haven't figured it out, it spells IDIOT. hahaha

But anyways, once I found the time, made a little something for the little one.

It's a little seluar pantai (beach pants) for when we actually go to the beach :) *hint hint* Tried to put it on Sa'eed and thank God it fits. Don't have a picture of it since he was so engrossed with playing that he wasn't that much of an obliging model. Wanted to make something else after I was done with this, but the extension plug at home went wonkers pulak. All in all, I'm happy with the sewing machine :)
