Re: The Felted Wool Sweater--Updated

wow! this a wonderful article. i have been trying to figure out a way to finish a felted wool jacket I'm making for my toddler made from thrift store wool finds that i felted in the washing machine. i thought about pinking the edges' but i LOVE the bright stitching and saddle stitch in turquoise. As always, i have enjoyed another garment you have presented to us. Keep up the great work! oh and great job on Martha Stewart!

Re: Book Giveaway: Successful Serging

i didnt know what to do with my serger until my daughter started ballet. instead of buying expensive practice tutus ($20 each) i buy a yard of chiffon for $8 and let my serge do the rest. it rolls the edges and makes working with flimsy fabric a breeze. My daughter looks great and no one knows the tutus are "homemade".
