tension headache? This class will teach you to use your machine with
confidence and give it the use it deserves. The morning will be spent
threading, adjusting tensions, learning how to trouble shoot bad stitches
and the techniques that make your serger different from your regular
machine. The afternoon will be spent putting your new knowledge to use by
making a pair of easy pajamas from cotton or flannelette. Students will be
contacted with a list of supplies. Please... Your machine must be in good
working order to get the most from this

result is always fun, spontaneous and crazy! Create a patchwork wall
hanging/pillow front you will enjoy for years to come. All materials will be

evening of class.
