Here’s The Collar I Made

Published by pattye under Greyhounds Edit This

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.
