During our move down here, we broke my sewing machine. I think it was our only casualty, but it was kind of a sad one. I don't use my machine all the time, but I do enjoy pumping out little projects on it. So a couple of months after we got down here, we did some research and came up with a new machine that we thought would work well. We ended up with a Sailrite brand somewhat industrial machine that supposedly will do lighter weight projects as well.
So I just finished up my first project on it, and am very happy with the results. We have a gate on the side of our house, and the wind just howls through the gate, bringing in all of the neighborhood leaves with it. So I made a gate cover to allow the breeze in, but will hopefully keep the leaves out.
It's made out of a mid weight mesh. The machine worked great!
After sewing the edges, we just needed to add the grommets so it wouldn't pull out.
What a great way to spend the hot part of the day here in the desert!
