No embroidery today - I've been playing with my new (to me thanks to the generosity of another member) serger. I began with five very cheap fleece blankets I bought in a sale. I used an old fleece for a pattern. (It also donated the zip which I may yet take out and try to make a better job of putting it in.)

Very pretty!

Great as always Sue. You are awesome.

you do wonderful things i wish i was half your talent !!!

Amazing what new ideas you come up with! I am very glad you have a new "toy"

Fabulous!!!!!

Pretty stripes of colors. You did great on your serger jacket.

This is simply gorgeous Sue. Kudos to you! Great way of rejuvenating, renewing, rethinking! Love and blessings Chris

I was just wondering what kind of serger you have? I am looking at getting one

Aren't sergers awesome?? I think they are a huge time saver, and can create some wonderful pieces. I like your jacket. What a fun way to use the fabric!! :)

Awesome job. I love the stripes

What a fantastic jacket! Wish it was mine.

Wow! I love the simplisity of it. I have never thought of doing this. Are you going to add any embroidery to it or fancy stitchew along the seam lines? You never sem to run out of clever ideas Sue. Hugs, Susan
