Here’s The Collar I Made
It’s hard to get back into the swing of work after a three day weekend. We have to work five days this week. Next week and the week after, we will only work four days due to another camping weekend. I’m self-employed so when I don’t work, I don’t get paid. The pay is so low right now that it doesn’t really seem to matter. I really hope things improve soon. It’s depressing and scary.
After we returned home from camping yesterday, I went to the store to buy more fabric for collars. I’m so excited. I hope to work on Jack’s tonight. He’s going to have a St. Louis Rams’ collar. The collar I made for Scout last week turned out nice, I think. I could make a few improvements, but I was impressed with myself. I knew she would look great in a melon or orange collar and she does.
Hubby was even impressed by my stitching on this collar. The first few I tried to make were disasters. The material was too thick and it kept getting stuck in the machine. It was discouraging, but I think I have overcome that. I have more confidence now, so I am ready to make another one.
