Happy Mother's Day...

...no, this wasn't a gift for Mother's Day. ha ha ha! I picked up some side work last summer and bought it back then with some of the money I earned. Can you believe this Baby Lock enlighten serger has been sitting in it's box since last August?! Anyway...for Mother's Day, I decided to bust this baby open and start using it! I decided to sew up a top for myself using this serger for the Made by Rae Spring Top Sewalong. (See the next picture for the result.) I love this machine! I can't believe it took me this long to start using it. I was a little intimidated to start using the machine since I got the most MINIMAL lesson (if you could even call it a lesson) on how to use the machine months after I purchased it--but that's another story. Isn't it frustrating when there is only one store in your area that sells certain machines and you have to deal with their awful service if you want a machine that only they sell?! Anyways...threading is a BREEZE with this machine! I'm just doing the basics with the machine now, but so far, it is very easy to use and maneuver! I can't wait to play around with it a little more! I was able to piece together the top in the next picture with this machine in no time! :) Happy Mother's Day! :)
