Two weeks ago we get back into #sewing after a while. We tried to make a #zipper #pouch
There are still some imperfection, but we are getting better.

They keep calling it a crochet kit, it is not a crochet kit, it's obviously knit. The article's photo is of him in a different knit top; the sweater they discuss is colorwork, two fox/ wolf heads, v 1950s.

Snowing all day outside, time for some winter jobs.
Like replacing the broken zipper on my work jacket. Some difficulties remembering the finer details of sewing machine tweaking, not helped by #Knirps screaming loudly into my ear.
Didn't result in the neatest job, seam not straight and I stretched the fabric vs the unyielding zipper, but just fine for a jacket that's already sampled blotches of epoxy, polyester, varnish and a variety of sealants.
Picked a larger zipper in hopes of being more robust. Onto the next 10 years, favourite medium-weight work jacket!

Yesterday I replaced a zipper in my SO's backpack. I salvaged the zipper from an old footrest thingy that has given up. I could sew most of it with the machine but had to handsewn towards the ends. It's not pretty on the inside but it's looking almost normal on the outside and is fully functional. Much better than having to buy an entirely new backpack!

These are #zipper #covers for a #bible .
Most tricky part is usually the spine part of these covers. I wanted to come up with the #style that left the book laying completely flat, not bending the spine of the #book . This is because #books will last longer and stay in better condition if they are kept and used properly.
First time for me to #craft this #style but I've learnt that they are quite #popular #choice in #usa . Well, they have made their way now to #estonia as well!
