green_marthaAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRHHHHHHH !!!!
There are times when I really hate my sewing machine. I'd gladly kill it under the most refined tortures, if I needn't it that much. (one day, I'll have a brand new machine that won't weight half a ton and that I can bring along with me on vacation...)
So the problem is, my machine obviously has something agianst my woollen skirt. She just won't sew it. First the thread breaks. Then the thread breaks again. Then the thread breaks again AND again. Nothing to do with tension problems or so, everything is allright when I give it a try on a scrap of fabric. When it comes to the skirt... the thread just breaks. That was this afternoon.
Tonight I gave it another try... guess what ? The thread broke again ! Then it started... well I don't know, maybe my sewing machine whishes she were a knitting machine or something. Dunno what happened to the thread, but it involved many knots and moans from the machine and finnaly... Yeah, you got it : the thread broke.
It took me an HOUR to sew this damn waistband to the skirt. And ended just as I bent the needle.
