My New Toy

This week I got an early Christmas present in the mail.  My in-laws called to double check our address and told me to be on the lookout for my gift.  They told me it was heavy and large and so instead of giving it to me in Utah they were mailing it so I wouldn't have to worry about taking it home.  Boy did they pique my interest!  I hadn't told them anything I want for Christmas nor had they asked!  I love being surprised, so I was excited! 

The doorbell rang on Tuesday and sure enough, it was the UPS guy.  I looked on my porch and what to my wondering eyes should appear but a serger!!!!   I was so excited!!  I never would have even thought to ask for one for years! They got me a Brother Lock serger. I got it all set up and am already looking for some great projects to make that use a serger.  If any of you have an idea for me, send it my way! 

Thank you so much Linda and Evan!!  I love it and I know this is a gift I can use for years and years to come.

There are so many times I've thought a serger would come in handy when doing projects. I'm sure you'll find many uses for it! What a great gift!

How fun! Reminds me of all our long hours in the sewing lab! Are you going to name your serger something fun? ;) As for projects I got nothing fun.
