I got these lovely scraps from Dresden quilter, they are just fabulous and I love them. Thanks so much....why not go check out her blog....she is just wonderful!
My serger had a broken upper looper, you think that is a cheap fix? Think again. Turns out that I needed a new pedal (reason why looper broke, it only has one speed...and that is fast)...another not so cheap fix. I was crying all the way to the bank. Then if some of you do not know this, it was ninety dollars just for the repair person to see it. I would not have gone because I am so cheap but my husband said..."GET IT FIXED"....why have a broken machine. To be honest, I needed my serger several times since it got wounded.
Well...a month later and a loan against my oldest child, it is back home and well......it is good to have her home. I used her yesterday serging some upholstery fabric.
I didn't want to make this long but I was at JoAnn's (no shocker to any of you to be found there). This lady comes up....psss pssss (like she is selling something illegal). She says, I have all of this upholstery fabric that I am taking to Goodwill, will you like to look at it first and take what you want.
SAY WHAT? Now upholstery fabric is not up my alley, but free is. The first thing that popped into my mind was totes, bags....oh yesss....momma is thinking (get the fire extinguisher...someone head is going to explode).
So to the car we go...and oh my gosh......good thing it was fabric, it caught the drool.
The only problem was it had a moldy smell.....that is where the serger came in. I serged up all of the fabrics and washed them. (what a long story). Tomorrow, well....you are right...getting that upholstery fabric and have a hay day with it.
