WOW!!! Your outfits are amazing! How hard are they to make using the regular machine? Any tips?

Love these dresses and really enjoyed looking at the photos of your other ones!

Thanks! Stacie... making them with a standard machine is easy. I've only had my serger for 2 months. I did borrow a serger for a bit last year, but I did not use it a lot. Since purchasing my own machine, I have been making a lot of skating clothes. I think it is easier to make the dresses with a serger, but making them with a standard machine is absolutely doable and not hard. :)

Oh and Stacie... Jalie has a great technique for people who do not own a serger. Zig-zag your seams and then sew a straight stich just under your zig-zag stitch. Doing that will create a much stronger seam. Kwik sew only reccomends a zig-zag stitch and sometimes you could see the stitching after the garment was worn. After I started using Jalie's technique for standard machines, I rarely saw another seam. :) I hope this post made sense!
