I had #sew much fun using my #vintagesinger 328k to teach an online #sewing class this week. Everything is so easy to see on this machine, I think it helped make learning about top threading easier.

I’ll soon be back in black with a new sports bra! The pattern is from @GreenStyleCreations and I’m using a tip from @jsterndesigns on marking to get a match across a zipper. #sewing #sew

Souping up this #sewing machine for one of my students. I confirmed this week that St. Louis Park Community Ed is willing to take on this class online. Students can use their own machine or contact me on how to borrow/buy one. To register, go to their catalog website and search “sew.”

Took a little time this morning to work on my comfy stuff wardrobe. This is the First Choice boxers pattern with pockets I added. Resurrected the long-neglected serger and used the #singer301 for topstitching. #sewing #sew

The seam match isn’t perfect, but it’s pretty good! This print is only available from me as a custom order - I know it’s not to everyone’s taste, but I think it’s pretty cute. #sewing #sew #makingmasks

I don’t normally use pins, but sometimes they are the best tool for the job while #sewing.

I’m starting to #sew up some washable bags for masks. I realized just before Dee went back to work that most people (including us) don’t have super-ready access to their washing machine when they get home, so the idea is this rests on a door handle and you fill it with masks until you are ready to wash! I’ll send some to @textilecentermn (which is also still selling masks) to see if people find them useful. I’m also writing a pattern/instructions for them in case anyone else wants to sew their own.

When I was in college, a friend of mine introduced

When I was in college, a friend of mine introduced me to bibimbap. She was so excited when I loved it! That summer, I bought the Dok Suni cookbook and I made it for my family. I’d probably never made a single dish with so many components before! I especially remember that my dad loved the sriracha sauce, which hadn’t had a cultural moment, yet, in 2001. I made it for dinner last night because I was craving it. If you make the rice and at least one of the vegetables the night before, it doesn’t take forever to make. I left out the meat and added broiled tofu. I also pan-seared some shiitake mushrooms and didn’t make the zucchini because I forgot to get some last week.
