I was incredibly excited and nervous about my new serger. I ordered it from amazon and then left it in the box for a few extra days, read and watched the instructions, then decided to dive in. I made a set of baby wipes tonight for a friend using really nice organic cotton flannel I bought from Vegala.etsy.com . I made them 8×8 and used a 3 thread overlock and rounded the corners. It was nice to practice on something relatively easy!
I’ve been considering for a couple months now about re-starting my blog. I’ve discovered my new hobby that I’m pretty much addicted to now — sewing. I discovered the whole blogging community of sewers (is that a word?) and hope I can make a tiny contribution and maybe make a few friends along the way, learn some great tricks and have fun! Hopefully someone will want to look at this, but if not at least I’ll have a records of the things I’ve made. A list of things I’ve made for my noodleheads! Here’s a few I’ve been working on…
My mom’s birthday present, the multitasker tote by Anna Maria Horner. I made this one at 75%.
Grand Revival Flea Market Bag! My friend Jill ended up with this one, I love the Good Folks fabric that I purchased from fabric.com on this one.
