Serge Me Silly!!

Ok.  So I have been looking on Kijiji for months...  I've checked local stores, online, and even checked to see how much a serger would cost after shipping it from the States... And it has always amounted to too much, since I am only a beginner at sewing and I didn't want to buy anything I would regret later.  Well, thanks to Evelyn from Southwest Calgary, I finally found me the perfect serger at a perfect price!  No longer will I have unfinished edges!!  Yay.  Wanna see it?  (I know you don't, but I am so excited about it that I am going to show you anyways!)

In addition to the instruction manual, Evelyn had taken a class back when she bought the serger and she kept all the notes and examples.  She asked if I wanted it.  Uhhh... yes please, since I have no idea what I am doing yet...  She also gave me a bag of thread to go with it as well. 

And this is how excited I am....

I found some really great houndstooth fabric that will make some cute sunday dresses for the girls and a skirt for me.  But that project can wait until next month when I actually have a real sewing space.  My mom is even contributing a great little sewing table to help me create my masterpieces.  Woot woot!  And Evelyn?  She wished me luck with my new serger and hopes I put it to good use.  Me too... :)
