Followed sequence like before.
There are some problems with the new system,

Worked on module again.
Today, I was going to try and do a brown ballcap.
I was going to put "TEXAS" with orange stitching
on the side, but we were not able to do it.
We need for the item to be flat, so I'm going to
try something else. We can add vocabulary &
crosswords to our blogs for xtra points.

Today, I brought in a grey cotton t-shirt to
put some stitching on. I put the shirt on the hoop.
Once the program was set with directions I pushed
the start button. I used orange thread and spelled
out "TEXAS" in upper case and then below that I
put "Longhorns" in script letters. It turned out
really nice. I'm going to give the shirt to my
Grandpa as a surprise.
