The projects this month work with Huck Toweling and heavy-weight threads. If you are not familiar with Huck Toweling, here is a bit of info; it’s been around for years, 100% Cotton, very absorbant, durable, lint-free, and has a “float” weave creating a nice texture.
The first project is Zero Waste Towels, also know as Un-Paper Towels and reusable Paper Towels. My version of Zero Waste Towels uses the strengths of the Huck Toweling and your serger. Huck Toweling is strong and absorbent, and the serger is a champ at finishing edges! Depending on the size you choose to make, one yard of Huck Toweling will yield three, four, or six towels.
The second project is using Serger Crochet to add a decorative edge to a Tea Towel. This technique has been around for years, and it’s a good one. Using 4.5, 8, or 12 weight Threads adds a nice decorative edge to Tea Towel. ¾ of a yard of Huck Toweling is a perfect length for a Tea Towel with a Serger Crochet edge.

Hi I'm PJ
Since 2006 I’ve been a teacher at Montavilla Sewing Centers in the Portland Metro area. I design, produce and teach the monthly projects for Babylock Serger Club, Janome, BabyLock and Brother Machine Embroidery Club, and 8” Block of the month Club.
I have a lot of fun creating projects, designs, and patterns that incorporate techniques and products to encourage the students to get the most out of their Sergers or Embroidery Machines.
