My finished and mostly re-done serger Easter Basket done in our Serger Club. I was not happy with my little Singer I carry due to it being lighter than my other one. My left thread kept skipping even though a brand new needle was used and worked great on testing at home for just serging seams together but this thing got thick a few sections and my handle was atrocious--I think I counted I thick 12 layers or was that on the ears---instruction give at class--at home only supply list and preparation with stabilizer and interfacing. Anyways, not good on certain parts so ripped most and redone at home. Also used old, old SteamaSeam2 which did not want to adhere too well to my grass and Eegg appliques for no sew----I stitched each one as raw edge applique at home, then redid my handle. Just another thing to set 'somewhere' for display in the sewing room.

Your basket came out great!! So you got your pattern at class? I like the applique.
(The grass almost reminds me on the Grinch's hands and fingers-lol)

Yes,they won't give out anything but a supply list to us and then in club will give the instructions--they are always free from websites they visit and work out a sample to show. Teacher was not clear on a couple points so my ears ended up I think with 12!!! yes, 12 layers of fabric/stabilizer. No wonder I had thread issue in the left needle.

Thank you. Your table runners and hangers are so lovely as are your clothes when I see them.

I guess 'redoing' is my middle name these days but thank you for saying. Wished I didn't have to redo though.

Thank you Carolyn, my friend. Not really hard but serger messing up--that left thread kept breaking. Cover the ding dong handles with fabric since I forgot to turn cutter blade off when trying to fix the stitches. UGH!

Thank you. That sign was a gift from my granddaughter as we are learning the Cricut Maker machine together.
