Apparently my sewing machine will automatically adjust the tension for different threads...which means it will NOT stretch the elastic thread the way it's supposed to. So what does that mean?? I have to manually adjust the screw to tighten the tension on the bobbin casing... bad idea cause it will mess up regular thread tension. So I had to BUY a 2nd bobbin casing to adjust the tension so now i have 2 - one for elastic thread, one for regular.... It took me about 4 days to even figure out what was wrong... *Sigh* the stuff we do for our daughters. If you think that was difficult… you should see what I’m going through.

Pretend baking on the other hand... I just need to get some felt to make some felt food and ingredients. :) Ah… my first comment.

I'm really trying to get some good ideas where I can keep my 2.5 yr old busy once number 2 comes along. What about fun baking to do where the kids can get involved. (Love the dress by the way).
