I didn't finish the cushions yeaterday as I intended. Instead I popped round my mum and dad's and ended up helping them to cut out some new sofa covers in a lovely blue embossed draylon. We had to repair their sewing machine first as after sitting unused for many years a capacitor in the foot control had blown and the machine started off on its own and would not stop until we disconnected the electricity.
I untangled the thread from the bobbin raceway whilst dad found a replacement capacitor and by 9pm we had two completed re-upholstered cushions, four more cut out ready and my dad has been instructed on how to complete the rest.
I will pop round later to see how he gets on.
