arrrg this dipe is doomed!

So did you notice I never posted pictures? :( I got back to work on it last night, attached elastic, clipped corners and curves, turned the beauty out...the problems started with topstitching. Every few inches my machine would start squeaking, suck the fabric down and make a ton of loops on the bobbin side. I really hope the problem is just that I'm sewing on knits with a non-knit needle, but every store I tried today was either closed or out of the right needle. Looks like Monster and I will be walking to the sewing store tomorrow!

In other news... I'm supposed to go back to work next Monday, and each day my dread grows. Visions of winning lotto tickets dance in my head, and part of me hopes that if I just don't accept this is really happening, maybe it won't. Thinking of anyone besides me taking care of him, even my mom or mother in law, causes panic. I just don't know if I can do it, even for a few weeks. I have an interview for a part time job at a local breastfeeding shop Tuesday morning, which could solve all my problems. Fingers crossed until then...
