after my messed up try out it only took me about an hour to finish the second estelle…..two more to go…
Blue and lightblue cotton left overs and sadly: cheap white thread. I took one roll out of my sewing case, not knowing that I put the cheap Ikea thread on it a while ago. I was wondering why my sewingmachine made some realy bad seams, checking everything, ripping up seams, doing them again...but no mistake was found - until I remered that I managed to throw away the original thread but not the roll for the underthread.....NEVER USE CHEAP THREAD!!!!!!!
not IKEA!
