Raining hard for some time here. Good thing mowing was done yesterday.
Finally finished 30 some flags for Color Guard. Had to replace a silver strip that was removed (a poor job of it) and then they were used without being hemmed. They were very shredded on the bottom. Had to trim that off to even and then re attach the silver, also shredded from removal. I used the over locker to reattach and then sewed that down folded over. We tugged on them and they seem pretty secure. Hard to tell what will happen to them on the field. Trimming that sliver was a mess. Machines and room are covered in silver threads like glitter. First thing will be a good cleaning. Probably be finding it for months. Things you do for the kids.
