Sewing Surge

I go through phases where I lock into a particular hobby and do it until I'm sick of it, right now it's sewing with knits (using my new Brother DZ1234 serger).  Here is my latest creations - a Peter Pan french knit shirt (the collar is reversed to see the terry part).



and a striped cropped knit jacket thing.  I modified a pattern from Grainline studios, by cropping it, and not making it fully lined, but just the neck and placket.  I also narrowed the sleeves.




Once I get going it's hard for me to stop, because I figure out short cuts and routines that I'm afraid if I stop I won't remember the next time. So this time I'm taking lots of notes.
