A New Brother!

No, my parents don’t have some sort of sordid past…It is what I got in the mail yesterday!

It is a Brother serger, and I am so excited! When Briggs was sick this past weekend I had a lot of time to surf the web and read all sorts of reviews. I wasn’t even thinking of buying a serger anytime soon, but it was so affordable and great reviews were all I saw so I talked it over with Ben and he got online and bought it for me. He knows I have a major issue spending money on something that I don’t really need so he helped me out and just did it. Otherwise he knew it would be on my brain for weeks. So far I did spend about an hour this morning trying to thread the lower looper, but I think I finally got it and now just have some minor tweaking with the tension. Other than that, it has been easy to use. And BTW, I ordered it from a major retailer that “rolls back” prices and shipping was only $.97 and I got it in 3 days! I was impressed-I had never ordered online from them before. Anyway, from now on, my seams will be finished. Hooray!

  1. I am so excited for you and your new purchase!! I pretend I sew vicariously through you because one of these days I will be able to make some fun stuff that I see- I have always wanted to use one of those because they are the key to some really fun stuff. Have fun with it!!!

  5. Ooh, can't wait to hear how it works! Yet another reason we would get along well...I need my husband to just make purchases for me too because I can never seem to do it, even when I want something really bad! :)

    Have fun!
