Sewing Update

I have now cut out the Kwik Sew pattern. I now have three tops ready to sew.

I plan to sew the Butterick pattern first. I just threaded the serger. I ordered serger thread about two months ago from Atlanta Thread Supply. I cannot buy Maxi Lock thread except at one location in town and they have a limited selection. I was fortunate that one of the colors I selected on whim was perfect for this knit top.

The fabric is from Gorgeous Fabrics and I acquired it perhaps two years ago. It is a rayon knit that has nice feel and weight. It met the stretch requirements for this pattern as well.
