Did somebody order a serger?

White 2000ATS


Lookit! Lookit my new serger! Ordered it today from allbrands.com. I got the serger, which comes with quite a list of goodies, and the accessory set that includes extra feet and a workbook that I hear from PR is worth getting. $355 from the warehouse to my doorstep. I considered contacting my local dealer to see if they could come close to matching that price, but I don't see how they could. They list the White 1934D--one model lower than the 2000ATS--for $799, currently on sale for $499. So if they're selling the lower model for $164 more than I paid for the top model and all the extras.....well, I just don't see how they could beat it. My dealer does include classes with purchase, but I hear--again on PR--that the video that comes with the machine is as good as taking a class. Even if I were willing to pay more and have the classes I'd have to come up with more cash. Not willing to do that. What I really think is that they would try to sell me a more expensive machine. I don't want to go through that. I've done my research and the machine I bought is the one I want and the price I paid is the lowest I found. When I am ready to upgrade and pay the really big bucks (like $355 isn't big) then I will probably work with a dealer because I'll want to sit down at different machines and try out all the features. I've never sewn with a serger--I bought this one based on price, features and reviews at allbrands.com and PR.
Yay! I got a serger!

Crafty Stirrings

My sewing stuff has been packed up for quite awhile and I miss it! It was packed up to make room for a season of extended visits by family which we have truly enjoyed so it was a worthy trade-off. Family visits will be done in a few weeks and in the meantime we decided that we'll be moving into a different house a few weeks later, so my sewing and craft things (other than sewing-related stuff I have just a few jewelry-making and scrap-booking supplies) will remain packed until it's arranged in our new abode. Focusing on family and transition decisions has taken up my mental space so it's just now, as I begin creating the vision of our next home I'm looking forward to having a sewing space again.

Cozy Purple Pop of Color

Cozy purple throws for snuggling!  Adds some color  to the living room.  Thick fleece trimmed straight with rounded corners.  I tried some overcast stitches with my Juki however I couldn't get the look I wanted so I pulled out my serger. Gosh it's been, like 2 years since I used it but luckily it worked (I've had it for quite awhile but I'm still kinda afraid of it 😜).
