in a local Harvest Festival. Although it was a slow day, one item was very popular...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Our handmade Angry Birds! We couldn't seem to make them fast enough!</div>

I do have a nice sewing machine, but can't afford a serger. Owning a serger would most importantly save me a lot of TIME. </div><div> </div><div>I sew clothing for my daughter and sell items on Etsy. I have only sewn one item for myself but would love to sew more. I am a perfectionist, I must admit. Because of this, all of my seams are double stitched on all of the items I sell. The additional time it takes to always sew double seams, slows down my production! Which in turn slows down any possible sales. A SERGER would make my life better by allowing me to sew in less time and with a more professional finish!</div><div> </div><div> I am a mother of three children, and just found out I have one on the way, which will be our last. My husband is a hard working professional with a Doctorate but we are still barely making ends meet... I have a Bachelor's Degree in Art. I have been working hard at trying to build my Etsy Shop. I love to create, it is in my blood. I would like to be able to fulfill my need to create and help bring in extra income through my sewing. A SERGER would allow me to produce items I have not been able to produce with my sewing machine. It would speed up my production and improve my quality! My daughter's dresses would no longer have messy, loose seams. I would LOVE to have a serger that would create a FINISHED SEAM quickly and easily.</div><br /><br /><div>A SERGER would make my life better in that my products would look more, well, professional, with a finished edge. Here are some very pathetic examples of seams from dresses I have sewn for my daughter :</div><br /><div>...warning, seams are very very messy... </div><div><br /> </div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5511799747967882322" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP-fQm_qfIfLou7SYLvLjQJKk2c2WrS48agSQOtDEoJqllZjYylfsMw5pvkmwtBQuBGfUZ3HK4whZfcOw4zhdQ7k03LgnF0cqjvgIXYM7t_ZYq8O264-D2KsVsZ9vE1WSzsDIXCdXAUX4/s320/P1010873.JPG" /> </div><br /><div>A serger would help me to avoid the messy sleeve seams.. No longer would the knotched edges be visible. A serger would actually allow the fabric edges to be contained within the seam. For a smooth, durable, polished seam!</div><br /><div><br />Here is another picture of the "finished seams" I am able to create with my sewing machine, note the twisting of the fabric... With a SERGER this problem would disappear!!!</div><div><br /></div><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5511801583721644130" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicn_K6Hx2tOjfgqwQ8ts-sTz64HTWdrW4F_qOaUcl_SyV3LlaacrZAJCr4nCuxH_vtyCvdpQyLDzpXivepM0EZMCLd0GM3ZOO_eX833tBwMWqq2mBFSKIkf2vrIZun2kMHg9VU2fzK0I4/s320/P1010874.JPG" /><br /></div><div>If you are not convinced of the pathetic nature of the seams in the life of this seamstress who doesn't own a SERGER, then please take a moment to view the pictures below:<br /></div><div><br /></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5511802974705342274" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd8ZrMlUFiRP363CYLMueHuVxAp1LczKmSzPe6kPONs7Mv1I-vh9-trr3BM_70zAoSY0uh5stWv_ZKWd02Nl4gYbFQYKT76doawHzssDMfAbh0T3SwhsozZxiYKhyphenhyphenbqLf15_t5PUws_co/s320/P1010869.JPG" /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5511802264326443298" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6atef-gN-N6CMwQrfCjigPD1jkg-K7H2Ox4qUuOq0NHqNr6OtCMWs9G02_xP_TfiRmr_-kvP_xyXWGMk43YBxZ_sKu6F7-zz-ne3KpIutLhlzMz7ngB2ADWxwxnFazHwmXxZhr74wbbI/s320/P1010867.JPG" /><br /><br /><div>And last, but not least, we all have dreams. Dreams of using the amazing patterns that sit in our closets or on our shelves.

I have been known to help friends with their sewing projects, free of charge of course. I also love giving away my handsewn creations as gifts. I would love to share the abilities and capabilities that a SERGER would offer me, not only with my daughter, and my Etsy Shop but with my friends and family.
