I recently finished another project--another set of place mats for my Mom. The fabric was a gift from a friend who had made her husband a quilt out of it and I got the leftovers. Pretty good leftovers, wouldn't you say? Thanks, Maggie!
My sister pieced the squares, then I quilted and bound the place mats and serged around the napkins. Instead of using Wooly Nylon, I had gotten some Polyarn from Superior Threads I wanted to try, and am I ever glad I did. I used it in both the upper and lower loopers, and regular sewing thread in the right needle. It is so much easier to change to a rolled hem stitch on my Babylock Imagine Wave serger than it has been on my previous two. The results are pretty good, too. I think there will be more Polyarn in my ordering future.
