my sewing life will never be the same.

today in my sewing class, i learned how to thread/use a serger.

it is very intimidating.

and threading the machine is very, very frustrating the first time around.

and sometimes the needle breaks on your first attempt because you forgot to put the "tree" up.

but the results are pretty cool.

especially when you spend fifteen minutes trying to thread it all by yourself and successfully do it despite claims by the professor that the machine you were using was broken.

victory is sweet.

who knew there was a machine that could finish an edge, cut off excess fabric and use four different spools of thread to do it all?

what a machine.
