Description

Yet another fun project on my overlock machine (serger). It really works well with all stretchy fabrics. The kangaroo pouch on the front adds a little style and is functional!

      you are going to love your new serger. I love mine, but it took me a while to get some of the techniques down. Let me know if you have any questions! Happy Holidays!

      I did love it!!! From the first stitch!!! :-) By the way, I posted a question in discussions similar to yours and KateXXXXXX gave me an excellent response on not only the brands of thread (which I was asking about), but also the suppliers – if you haven’t received something similar, you might want to check it out here: http://www.burdastyle.com/discussions/someone-help-me/topics/which-brands-of-thread-are-better-best

      Thanks. I just used a basic bodice pattern and made the pocket and hood pattern by eye.

    Interesting. I like the detail with the contrast pocket and pleated neck.
