I've finished binding off the end and the only thing that is wrong with my scarf is that my tail is still on. I don't want fringe so I need to get rid of it, and I'm not sure if it would mess it up if I just cut it off.

I recently started a new job working in a Distribution Department and another Department is Embrodery. Well I was talking to a co-worker on Friday regarding my sewing machine that my fiance' purchased for me. I did a big oopsie which I was unaware of being an oopsie when I first received my sewing machine. I messed around with the dials and etc ... well now my tension is totally wrong!
If all else fails this weekend I am going to take in my machine to work and have the co-worker fix my problem on one of our breaks.
How do I fix my tension so I am able to start sewing and not have big loops and such?
I have read a couple other sewing machine questions and answers ... if you are not going to be helpful and think it is okay to be negative and rude please don't answer I am sure there are nice people to answer my question and be helpful in a positive way then being a smartbutt!!!

I really love Lush (www.lush.co.uk) and have recently bought some homemade soaps from other places on the internet.

How would I go about making my own soaps? I mean the creamy looking and feeling type rather than just glycerine.

As many natural products as possible would be good.

I don't plan to sell them on, I just find myself spending LOADS on soap and want to see if I can cut costs, as well as making some personalised smells.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Does anyone know where to purchase mr. potato head type pieces that you push into pumpkins to make faces on the pumpkin? I do not want the actual "Mr. Potato Head" kit to make one pumpkin. I want a kit that has several different eyes, nose, ears, mouth that kids can choose from to make their own pumpkins. I would like to find some to use in my classroom.

Thank You
