I really should upgrade myself ..... but this one was my G-ma's & learned to sew on it .....  :'(
But it works ..... and it's faster than by hand  , you just have to be patient with it .... & keep an eye on the Thread tensioner .....  :laugh:

yeah, tension is my problem. I always get "nesting" in the lower bobbin area under the presser foot.

I just end up braking the Thread a lot or it Frays and then knots up , then that whole stitch is shot , because the Bobbin didn't catch the Stitch , so it just pulls right out .

Well every picture Taken was either Blurry or Was obscured in someway (  little kid Camera muggin   :-\ )

I'll have to get more Taken latter ....   :(  Quite the Bummer ...

  However , this was the most Comfortable to wear kit I've made yet , so that is a Plus  ;D



But ...... I was called a Stormtrooper , White Boba Fett , Winter Boba , &  " Hey Star Wars " .

 Took tons of pics with kids and adults alike , all of who said  "  I love Star Wars " !  But Didn't really have a Clue ...

The icomm & the New Amp was the Hit of the Evening ......  8)
Best upgrade I've made yet . It Worked Flawlessly all night long .

This is the only Clear pic that I have ATM . It is Candid from the start of the Night . (I didn't know it was Taken)
 You can't see my Gaunts & the Bells look low .... However they're not , their higher .
The Slevees were pulled down from kids asking for pictures ..... Tug tug ....  :-X
