Sini Tuulia<p>And, in little hat: Yesterday put on the brim wire and petersham. You could do this by machine if you were willing to get annoyed at the million clips and/or pins you'd need, but I just did it by hand.</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Millinery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Millinery</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a></p>

Sini Tuulia<p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a> update. Cats have participated.</p>
Sini Tuulia<p>Meanwhile, in <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a>. Open for a short clip of me in unflattering house clothes, messing about with unpicking a seam, as Karvinen experiences small kitty bliss.</p>
Sini Tuulia<p>Today in <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a> - a double cat sewing experience. (Contains footage of me working around two cats in gif form.)</p>
Sini Tuulia<p>Ah yes, a double-cat on my sewing. Quite effective! I couldn't pick between the photos so just put together all three of the best ones.</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Cats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cats</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a></p>
Sini Tuulia<p>Today in <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a>. They're very helpful with me trying to finish these machine buttonhole threads!</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Cats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cats</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/gif" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gif</span></a></p>
Sini Tuulia<p>And in <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a> - Karvinen is helping me in disassembling this linen shift so I can toss the threadbare bits and repurpose the fabric that is still good. Invaluable assistance!</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Cats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cats</span></a></p>

Sini Tuulia<p>Sir, please do NOT learn how to operate those!</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Cats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cats</span></a></p>
Sini Tuulia<p>Meanwhile, <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a> in gif form. He's being very helpful.</p>
Sini Tuulia<p>I didn't notice he was pretty much looking into the camera in the second one. Look at his smug little face!<br>(Eye contact, but from cat)</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/gif" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gif</span></a></p>

Sini Tuulia<p>A cat selfie, of a cat being very helpful while I've been fixing the collar of this linen shirt.</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a></p>

Sini Tuulia<p>Continuing with the mending of this shirt now that I have the correct embroidery thread. Karvinen has been assisting.</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a></p>
Sini Tuulia<p>It's late and I'm tired, I did all the lengthwise top stitching and the quilt weighs a ton, but I did that... And I could trim off the batting and excess backing, so that's nice. Just did a gradient green thread and a tiny zigzag along the seams, it was simple and barely visible, and I can do something more decorative with the diagonal lines if I want later. 😶 Also cat.</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Quilting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Quilting</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a></p>
Sini Tuulia<p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a> or rather trying to sew around the cats.</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sewing</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Cats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cats</span></a></p>
Sini Tuulia<p>Bonus cat content. There have been so many sirs trampling upon the quilt as I've been sewing it with my trusty old Husqvarna older than I am.</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Quilting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Quilting</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a></p>
Sini Tuulia<p>I've been continuing with the unpicking of the vintage lace. Karvinen seems to really like the fabric or the lace, and has been participating.<br>Some of it was also broken or threadbare so I tried mending it, just with a bit of linen thread!</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SewingWithCats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SewingWithCats</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Mending" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mending</span></a></p>
