Thank you so much! I will try to loosen the tension next time and see if that helps. I truly appreciate it.
Thanks again.

Hi Toqua! You really have to know your sewing machine to be able to sew a lining into a crochet piece successfully. For my sewing machine, the trick is to set the tension quite loose (since you’re sewing through a lot of layers) and to make sure the ‘teeth’ don’t grab the piece too much. I hope that helps! :)

What a beautiful bag!! I am no where close to a beach, but I could see this used as a travel bag to carry all the loose ends you need when you get on the plane. I tend to have to really fight when I’m sewing on any crocheted item. Do you have any tips you would share? Thank you.

That is one of the songs everyone remembers the words to but not who sang it. It was called BEACH BABY and was sugn by the band FIRST CLASS.
