Sew what?!

H:
Dave and I have ventured to my cousin's for the weekend because there is ample floor space for laying out material for cutting.  The RV just isn't big enough, imagine that.

So far I've made two stow bags!  Woo... lots of work there.



And I sewed the "Bat Wing" which is a way to close off the end of the tarp when wind is driving in rain:




Day 1 of sewing 2 stow bags, 1 Bat Wing:


Other than that we've cut the pieces for our net tent, tarp, and sleeping bag/quilt.  Our most challenging part was marking the lines evenly and keeping cats and kids from playing on the fabric as we were marking the cutting lines.  The room we were working in is a formal living currently empty of furniture so the kids and cats use it for doing laps.  The other drawback is that there are no lights in the room and we had to move in a low watt lamp once the sun sets.  Still... the work is getting done.







After the current projects are sewn together the net project will be cutting and sewing up our backpacks.
