Bag Update




The latest state of my bag. It has been designed, pattern made, material cut. It was supposed to be printed but I was absent that day. Now, all is left is the sewing. Learning to sew in Finnish sucks. Ok. I suck at learning to sew in Finnish. At least, the sewing machine is just that, a machine which can be understood, especially because the instruction guide has pictures.





Useful vocabulary:
käsityö = handicrafts
ommella = to sew
ommeltu = needlecraft
ompelukone = sewing machine
huolittelu = trim, neaten
sauma = seam
päättely = the sewings begining and ending
from päätellä = to conclude
päärme = hem
tikkaus = stitching
tikata = to stitch
tikki = stitch
poistaa tikit haavasta = to remove the stitches
