Sewing, Sewing, Sewing

Humming the tune of "Rawhide" in my head.  Sewing, Sewing, Sewing, the bias tape keeps growing, da da da da de da Rawhide!

I'm sewing the bias tape on the 20 boy scout neckerchiefs.  Each neckerchief takes a full package, 4 yards.  That's 80 yards I'm stitching on.  I'm on my 6th neckerchief right now.  Just needed a break!

Have you seen a presser foot like this?  It is a "binding foot" and it hold the bias tape open and in place and the fabric fits in a little slot that feeds it right down the middle of the tape.  Sure makes it easier to sew as there is no pinning required and it catches the bias tape neatly on both sides. 

So I keep plugging away singing my little diddy.  Actually, I'm listening to podcasts as I sew.  Have you ever heard of Daily Audio Bible or Merry Ministries?  Those are two great ones to listen to, and they are free!

 

Hugs and blessings,

Nancy

ps.  Want to know a little secret?  I have produced some podcasts myself.  Back in 2010 I made several podcasts that you can find on iTunes.  My podcast was titled "Making Our Home a Haven."  In my very own home, I have always strived to make it a haven.  I don't always succeed, but I do always strive for it.  :-)
