When cut apart, it yielded pieces that were probably close enough to the correct size:
But that was all I managed. The treadle machine then decided to stop making proper stitches (it skipped stitches then broke the thread), and my Lotus had a go at chewing up a few more. At the end of the frustrating day this is all I have.
I also spent a bit of time looking at sewing machines on Gumtree and Ebay...
How frustrating!

ReplyDeleteIt is so frustrating when you have sewing days like that.
ReplyDeleteThis is not a good block to sew at the best of times. Hope your machine frustrations are solved soon.
