Elegy for a Sonata

So I finally got my act together to make a Shia costume since Koge Donbo is coming to Otakon. (although I'm not sure if he will be flattered by this or run screaming in terror.) Alas and alack, as I was sewing last night, the needle of my trusty Singer Sonata encountered an unfortunately placed pin and went awry. I replaced the needle, but the impact must have thrown something internal out of alignment, because it will no longer catch the bobbin thread. Result: One konked-out Sonata, and a costume in peril.

Oh well, it was 14 years old when I got it... I should be surprised that it worked at all.
