Here are some of the Koolaid Jammer purses I made. They were fun to make and always caused comments when you used one. I lined them all with bright solid colors. Sold them when I went to craft shows.

The top picture is the back of the jacket made out of 3 prs. of recycled bluejeans, really tan ones. Used the pockets off the jeans, and embroideried a floral design on areas of jacket. Next one is the front. Used pockets again, and used belt loops around buttonholes.
The bottom 2 are the apron I just made. It is all lined with another print, should have flipped up the ruffle to show it.

My camera isn't working very good today, or it may be me. Just noticed how crooked she is!!! Leaning to the left. This is the outfit that I just made this last week, hemmed it yesterday. It was the first time, I made that pattern. Has the bonnet, dress and pantaloons. Am trying to do them in appropriate prints for that period.

Thought that I would post two of the projects that I have made with my Embellisher. It has 7 barbed needles that mesh wool roving or ribbons or material into the bottom material. It doesn't use any thread. It's a fun machine, and I must do more things with it.
The top picture is a wool scarf that I made with the wool roving flowers on the ends, and then I cut out some of the material. The color of the scarf isn't tan as the picture, but is grey.
The bottom picture is a denim shirt that I just added the sunflowers onto it. Just by blending the different shades of roving.

I've been blessed to be just a small part of knowing a set of triplets. My friend's daughter had triplet boys. For their first Halloween she wanted to dress as 3 peas in a pod. Guess what! I got to make the costume. Made 3 sleepers out of green fleece, and a large pod that they were propped up in. It turned out perfect for them. They are all doing great. Had to share a pic.
These are 3 kitchen items that I made in a class using my serger. The apron is lined. We learned how to make the bias tape, and how to ruffle all with the serger. The casserole carrier was also made with serger. The kitchen towel was already made, but we added the top, and also did the crocheting on the bottom with the serger. First time I ever crocheted with the serger and boy is it fast. Was super fun. A neat way to add to pillowcases and such. Much faster than doing it by hand, and it didn't make my wrists hurt.
