Hiatus: School is Coming

Once again, I will need to take a break from my project (though hopefully not the blog!). In one week I will be moving into school and of course the last thing I'll have time for is sewing, so until things settle down, my projects will be put on hold. I will keep updated with some other things (books, art, fun finds, etc). After all, someone like me can't possible hope to keep an interesting blog going based on amateur sewing projects alone! I'm thinking my next post will be an art one. Until next time, my good readers!

Hold Up in the Project

      So just after my last post, I sat down to work again. After boning two more channels, I realized that I was all out of my industrial cable ties! My friend wanted to go out so I thought that I'd stop at Lowe's on the way so I could pick up more. That was my first mistake. I walked in, found the electrical aisle and found the cable ties. After a nice little search, I came across something similar to the ones that I had bought in Home Depot, though they seemed a little less rigid, and they were wrapped in a circle rather than packed straight. I bought them anyway (second mistake). It turns out I can't flatten the ties, and even if I did, the plastic would have a "memory" an try to bend back. This, unfortunately, happened the day before my vacation. I'm finally back, but now I'm a little behind on the stays. Hopefully I can get to Home Depot (curse you Lowe's!) and get back on track. Until then, fellow anachronists!
