A project of the day. Working with the Model 1034D Brother Serger

Recently I bought an overlock model 1034D Brother. Fantastic machine!The first few days for some reason unknown to me, I was afraid to touch it,. And then suddenly sat down and had made this fabulous sweater / dress. I had this fabric at least for two years and could not find a use for it . If I’m not mistaking I bought it for $6 per yard ( 65% wool, 35% polyester) , now this fabric cost at least $25 per yard.I would appreciate if somebody will tell me where I can find “ brushed wool jersey’ or light “ wool knit “ for a cheaper price. Thank you!
On me! : ) Love how it fits, so comfortable and cozy!

Lou Reed - Walk On The Wild Side

I can't help myself, love this song! From his second solo album, Transformer, after leaving the Velvet Underground. To say the least, this song was highly controversial when it came out considering it is about transvestites who come to NYC for prostitution. They would say to their potential customers, "Take a walk on the wild side!" Lou Reed once said about the song: "I always thought it would be fun to introduce people to characters they maybe hadn't met before, or hadn't wanted to meet." What a classic, classic song!
