Whilst I was thinking brown thread I altered a knit top that was too loose in the body, cut apart and completely reassembled a knit top, shortened some trousers, and sewed a button back on to a skirt.I also put a skirt waiting to be altered into the charity shop bag because I didn't like it enough to put the effort into the alterations.
I've had enough of brown now and have just rethreaded the machines into sunset orange for the next item!
Left - before (some issue with the colour) and on the right - after (colour is more accurate).
OK--orange it is! I like fall colors also. Brown, orange, red orange, olive green. All those "woodsey" colors.
ReplyDeleteHow SMART of ya!! "Rethreading" mostly counts with your serger? Do you tie on?
ReplyDeleteI admire your accomplishments, Ruthie.

Rhonda mostly I tie on but this time the lower looper thread slipped off and I had to redo the whole thing.
ReplyDeleteLove the newly altered top. Very nice and much more shapely.
