blogger ettiquite.

so, i didn't realize that it would be necessary to post this, but apparently i think too highly of people in general. feel free to post any comment you want to my site, i encourage it, but if you are posting to me, it is polite to disclose who it is coming from. untraceable addresses are not accepable on this site unless you have let me know who you are by other means. my email is themainstitch@frontiernet.net if you feel that you need to write me something you don't want anyone else to know who you are. i hope all of you understand that i don't appreciate cowards. thank you. love, me

yet another new hire!

we got a new guy today. he came from the boat companies so has some experience which will be really helpful. my boss from the german restarant came in today and wants to work part-tome probably. she is german, been sewing her entire life and is awsome at it. i hope it works out. anyway, wish us luck!

hippy bus!

this bus is so cool. we did the complete upholstery job. it is going to be painted tan and chocolate brown. it turned out really nice. mike made the door panels and i did all the sewing. ian is all excited that we did a "hippy van".


this is a 4" pad that makes out into a bed with the "z" frame that is the back seat.

burried under my work- LITERALLY!

here is me in the midst of making a boat cover. thank god for long arm machines and my papaw for providing me with the oppurtunity to buy one!
these seats are for bob prigmore. you can google him and see the boat the seats go on. he is a 9 time champion for drag boat racing and i just finished the seats for him. he gave me the old ones, said look at the boat on the website and make me something cool. so, this is the result. the bands are baseball stitched and the centers are tuck and rolled. yep, again, i totally rock! they look better in person than in the picture. so, i am doing better lately and am getting over being sick. i am still crazy busy, i am booking into the end of april right now. i have some head cold still, but so much better than the flu. hope you all are doing well!
