Let me introduce you to my lovely TacSew blind stitch machine....
He makes completely invisible hems!!!!! I've even used a different color thread than what I was hemming and you can't see the tiny hem at all! Its amazing!
I've actually had this baby for about 2 months now. I used it on my skirt in the last post, Bald Mans slacks and blazer! Its crazy fast!
I admit to really wanting this machine after reading this article by the Sewing Divas..
How could you not want it after that! Plus I always hated the blind hem stitching a regular machine does....
I researched out what kind I wanted... and TacSew had the best reviews... and what do you know... the exact machine I wanted my machine dealer carried!!! YES!
Its not complicated to thread... not complicated to adjust... and if I did have any problems my machine dealer knows all about this machine.. so I would have help.
The hardest thing about it is getting used to how fast it is. Its much faster than my serger or my coverstitch... It reminds me of the super fast machines I used to run years and years ago in the sewing factory I worked at one summer.
I highly recommend this machine if your looking for a new friend to add to the sewing room!
This fabric was left over from a costume I made a client last year... I love it with the skirt!
The top is draped, no where near done and completely pinned right now!
Below here... a leather skirt is being refashioned into a simple purse...
Here.. some super cute Mickey Mouse fabric paired with a gorgeous marbled fabric.... all cut out and going to be a tote bag!
Crocheting is going pretty slow lately... not because I'm not crocheting... because the 2 projects I'm working out are spring tops and taking forever!!!

I really have a ton I've made I need to post... I'll get the Bald Man to do a 'photo shoot' soon. And I need pics of him in his blazer too!
Anyways... next projects...
