What did you sew today?

Glad to have found this. I picked up a Singer 237 from a garage sale a month or two ago. Mostly wanted to be able to prototype stuff, but as I think about it there's more and more I think I could do with it. Need to start learning.

Unfortunately the case, which is also the base for the machine, was broken so I need to make something to raise it up slightly off my workspace before I can use it. The lady also dropped the foot pedal and while it still works it is pretty fickle. Oh well, it was $5.
You will find yourself going down a rabbit hole. 😂 Once you start sewing your mind will run wild with ideas(some good and some bad) but it is fun. Congratulations on your new machine.

There’s a few things I wish were different that I messed up on but need it starting next week so this’ll do. The lids are the most challenging, it’s a pain to get it right and fit on properly, but it came together well. Should be roughly 2000 cubic inches, maybe 2200, so a good day pack. Stretch side water bottle pockets on the side, a load shelf, all the things I’ll need hopefully.
