Serger Skill Class

Own a Serger?    This is the monthly class for you.    Bring in your machine and let Connie walk you through doing some fun things with different weight threads, ribbons, and fabric.    A serger is no longer just a machine to finish edges or create one step seams.   

Interested in a Serger but don't know where to start?   Stop bye and watch these ladies create.

Each month this group either starts a new project or completes one from the prior month.    

Always bring all your serger feet with you, thread, your machine, power cord, FHS, scissors, needles and general sewing supplies.
   
May Class

You will be venturing down the path of T-shirt construction this month.    The pattern we will be using is the Lark Tee.    Connie will help you size your pattern if needed, cut out a pattern, and then will help you construct your t-shirt on the serger using all the skills that you have learned or will learn for this class!   

You will need to purchase the Lark Tee pattern and some pattern ease to trace your pattern and make size adjustments.    A knit fabric is required for this project.    We suggest that you get your knit fabric and pre-wash it prior to cutting out your pattern.
