I got up Monday morning with every intention of finishing the front of my Calypso dress skirt today. After just inches of one row of machine embroidery (with about 20 rows left to go), I remembered why I had set this project aside what seems like a million years ago. I DON'T HAVE TIME!!!
Machine embroidery is SO slow and so finnicky. Makes me wish I hadn't chosen to do fancy embroidery on every jelly roll seam. I may do the skirt back with just straight seams. By bedtime Monday, I did finish four seams, but it's going to take more than a week at that rate to finish just the skirt front.
I can't help but wonder if hand embroidery would be any faster...
