Here's the top that I made with a nice stretch knit jersey fabric:
The collar was tricky:
Fiona helped me today as I took these photos! She's my Scottie-Poo.
This is a picture of a Babylock Imagine Wave serger. You need 4 spools of thread, it trims and binds the edge of the fabric as you sew.
And here are the side seam stitches on the inside of my new top:

It was difficult to match the thread to this pattern, but I used a seafoam color and it worked out well.

It's very comfortable to wear and I am happy I finished it!
Au revoir!

Very pretty! Nice job!
Susan,
This came out beautiful. I love the post too, say hi to Fiona for me. Thanks for showing the serger, now I know what itlooks like.
Have a beautiful Monday.

Great job! Did you use a regular machine for the collar overstitch? Or does your serger do that too?? I just got mine recently and am still learning on my own. There are no classes around here that I've found, but maybe I'm not looking hard enough. :)
Also, where do you get such pretty knit fabric!? I'm having a hard time finding anything other than solids (in stores).
