So I’ve never used a serger before. Ever.
And neither had my mom, until last week when she pulled hers out and whipped up this dress for Grace.
She surged the entire outfit, perfectly in one try while I ate cinnamon hearts, sipped a soda, and watched helplessly.
The dress is really cute, although you can’t see most of it (it was freezing the day I took her picture so her cardigan is covering the cute gathered waist and sleeveless bodice) and even though she selected her own accessories (plastic beads…nice touch).
And as for me? Will I ever be brave enough to try a serger? Will I ever stop sipping soda and eating cinnamon hearts? Only time will tell.
Ps…This dress isĀ here at a cute link party I found this morning.

I am on the fence about the serger too…I just love my sewing machine so much – and all those threads kind of scare me! Lol

Sometimes, while using my cheapo serger that I love love love, I give my fancy sewing dirty looks. Once you try it you’ll be hooked.

I’ve never tried a serger either, a little too intimidating for me right now. I just started using a sewing machine with a straight stitch:) Love the dress!
