What a serger can do

 I realized I never posted these pics I took of my serger so I could show what it does....actually the only thing I've figured out so far would be more truthful!
 It's a little scary as it cut the excess material away as it finishes the seam
 This is the finished seam.....I have to add that the machine came pre-threaded & while I was doing this one of the threads ran out so I had to figure out how to thread it.  There is a lower looper, an upper looper & two needles.  I had a quick lesson in the store watching someone do it & I figured I could do that.

Wrong!

 I forgot the most important part of the equation.......it has to be threaded in order from right to left & I just threaded the one that ran out & it only took 59 tries before I remembered that part!
This is a "before" picture

  2. Rosie loves the black one. But she is an orange and yellow girl....she just asked for an orange bedroom. I'm looking on the brightside and thinking we won't need to use lightbulbs in there.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BIG BROTHER

Happy birthday to my big brother Terry...........have a wonderful day!

Sun Room.....Day Ten (up-date)

Today was spent finishing up the outside & waiting for everything to happen. They waiting for the building inspector to check the sonar tubes for the porch & steps, the electrical inspector, & for the delivery of the insulation & the knotty pine for the interior. Of course everyone showed up at once. Molly decided they were all there to entertain her! How many guys does it take to unload a truck?  Especially when that truck has the wrong stuff on it!  Yup, you heard that right....they brought the wrong pine.  Jim was livid as he had special ordered it.  Supposedly the right order will be here first thing Monday!  We'll see. This is a sonar tube filled with concrete.

Molly bike riding????

Popster has been teaching Molly to run along side of his bike.  It has been a slow process but she's finally getting it.  They start off very slowly.......  then speed up a little......  which is when she gets crazy& decides to "carry" the leash......  gradually she feels more comfortable....  then she begins to gallop.... & the ears start to flap!!!!!
