I gained a level in sewing this weekend.

I fixed the tension on my sewing machine by loosening my bobbin’s tension screw. I’ve also started threading the thread past the tension disc the correct way. Things look more even now. It’s great.

I also learned the hard way to make sure my thread isn’t dangling onto your sewing machine’s gear shaft. I had a mess to clean up.

This was a first

I ran out of the light blue thread I was using. I don’t think I’ve ever emptied a spool of thread.

Masks count: I made 21 masks this week– 15 to donate, 6 for a friend up in MA. I also have about 30 masks cut and ironed, I just need to pin in ties and do all the sewing.

In other news, we have our first PeaPod delivery scheduled for this Thursday. I’m really not sure what to expect, but it’ll be interesting. I’m not sure it’ll be worth it, over going myself. Lots of availability issues in the app.
