In searching through my random mess of sewing gear, I think I may have found a ruffle foot. Must get a picture of it so I can compare it to online pictures. It may not matter, though, because I think I seriously messed up my sewing machine putting in a zipper last night. Now, I didn't sew over the teeth, in fact I have a gorgeous straight line both compared to the zipper and the dress seam/opening. But midway through the needle jumped, and now the bottom bit doesn't rotate properly so that I can't pick up the bottom thread anymore. A timing issue, I think? Definitely something for the experts to repair, though. Maybe I can coax my ancient in-table Singer to start working while this one is in the shop?
In better news, I used my non-sewing time to finish up my first September sock. I doubt I'll get the second one done in a week, but at least it's started! No picture, of course, because I was falling asleep at my needles by the time it finished.
Eric's home tonight! Yay!
