Dawgs in the house!

Stationary bike ride, but I will sew later

Husky basketball starts

First game last night.  It was only an exhibition game and the crowd was light but it was good to be back.  This is my 3rd year in that seat, or is it the 4th?  I think it is the 4th.  Wow.

BACK POCKETS ON

good news and bad news.  I Double Needled them on. I am going to take one into work and show the Double Needle operator in the factory - what is a good way to turn a corner with a Double Needle.  The good news is that they are looking good.  I am going to DN TS the side seams  kind of faux fell. The bad news is that I did not align the TS on the side seams.  I don't think anybody will notice (excpet everybody where I work in the apparel industry!).  More good news, Kitty does not care.


You can see how the TS does not line up at the sides

My supervisor is ok with the mistake.  Please note her approval.

fly done

Definitely need to tweak the pattern but looking ok.




fly construction

It is hard because I am combining my school (perfect fly for men's jeans) with my Vogue woman's jeans pattern.  I almost cut the zipper down to fit the top of the pant then I remember there is a waistband and that the zipper needs to go into it.  I like the double needle stitching. I may use that on the side seam and hem.
