          Unity just bust a needle - only the second one ever.  But it does mean some fairly major surgery to repair and replace - bollocks….

                                  So white denim gets dirty and Unity is inherently dirty. This is the best way I have found of cleaning her off before hemming a pair of IH-634S-WH….

                                        Absolutely awesome.  That reminds me.  Any news of a 634D and in multiple color ways?

                                            I'd say you've got the tension right.  Nice and even looking stitches there.
