Purple Serger Quilt


Just posting a picture of my latest project. My dear friend Polly gave me a pattern for this quilt after giving me a whirlwind lesson on my new serger. This is a quilt meant to be done entirely on the serger. I did cheat a little. I added some quilting lines not in the pattern and did the binding the regular way on my other sewing machine. I think the binding done on the serger creates cumbersome corners. The finished quilt measures about 36 by 36 inches. I think I will hang it on the wall of my sewing room since purple is my favorite color.

  2. My sister-in-law gave me her serger. Is there a pattern for this quilt that I could try? Thanks so much, Johanne Walters, johannecw@gmail.com

  3. Hi Johanne, the pattern is from a collection by Martha Pullen. I took a mini-course and the quilt was the project. You might try going to her site and see if the pattern is for sale by itself.
