Onesies

Here are the onesies that I am currently making. I got the pattern idea and tutorial from this. The pattern is in the Ottobre 4/2008 mentioned below.

On her blog ZootZMama stitches the knit edging on with her serger coverstitch. I did try that but can't manage very well around the suble curves (i.e. the crotch area etc). When you try to turn with the serger the knives are very anxious to cut away what's coming into the machine! ZootZMama did a beautiful job, but I found something that works better for me.

The Berninas Foot #2 is an overlock foot, and on my 440 QE you use stitch #8, the overlock stitch. It goes on beautiully and I am able to manage the curving of the fabric much more easily!

There are more in the works! They are fast and fun. Had a bit of a time finding a store that carried the ribbing.
