jcalleja said... how did you do the elastic? I have been doing the seams on a serger and the elastic with a zig zag stitch on a regular sewing machine. How do you get the double needle finished look on the elastic? thanks! 5/28/09 3:54 PM

I have a 3 needle machine so I can select any if all needles that I use. This gives me a variety of widths. Hope that helps. 6/3/09 2:15 AM
