Table Skirts are Finished

The sewing table skirts are finished; they make such a difference! See before & after shots in my completed projects page, and read the review here.

I think dh is getting used to the idea of a serger. I've decided on the White 2000ATS, since there are such good deals for it on ebay right now. From $287 to $340, depending on how many accessories come with it. I showed him the Joann's ad for the 1934 model, regular price $499, on sale for $399. On ebay I can get the top model for $100 less than Joann's sale price for a lesser model! Who could defy that logic?

Easter Ensemble

I sewed! I actually sewed! I got this pretty accordian pleated "broomstick" fabric at my first (and only, so far) BABES gathering (BABES is a group of sistah sewists from the bay area who have Pattern Review in common: I've wanted to make it into a skirt for Easter for 2 years and I finally did! Here it is: I've lost 58 pounds over the past 10 months and this is the first thing I've sewed since I started my diet (Atkins). To go with the skirt I bought a knit top (in the misses department, not the Women's department!) and to complete the outfit my sweet girls gave me a gift certificate for a pedicure so I have matching toenails!

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 😜).
