"Yes I did alter the pattern slightly to do an adjustment I made the out fits larger then was called for because I love comfort not form it. You should see the leather vest I made out of deer skin it is my best work, simple but great. Sharon"

JoAnn Scott left a comment for Sharon Barrett"Sharon, I'm so glad to find someone who has used the Lutterloh system. I also have the system but I haven't tried making a garment yet. How did the system work for you? Did you have to do any adjustments to the patterns once drafted?"
"I do not have the prefect body and I use Lutterloh patterns to make my clothes, Everything fits fine. I do make my out fits one size larger then required because I love comfort. Sharon"

"I have made a vest and it came out great. I used leather not cloth for my finished product and I lengthened the bottom so the vest would appear more western in appearance. But is great. I love it. I also made a skirt that came out great as well. The…"
"you didn't say what stitch your using. I used a four thread over lock and used settings for both needles and both loopers at 4"
"Thea that is a great idea, never thought of that. Yes Jodjean I wanted a very narrow thread."
"jodjean I never thought of just not using the thread thread so which needle do I take out needle to the left or the right?"
"I should have also stated I sew a lot and I also have a group on yahoo to help newbies with sewing. That is why I thought another serger would be good."
"That is great advice. I do have the huskylock 910 right now, It is just the removing of needles I am not comfortable with at this time. Have to be so careful not to drop one down in side, it can do a job on the insides. And you can't leave the…"
"question? I am thinking of getting a second serger to set it and leave it on three thread rolled hem. This way I do not have to remove needles and move dials all the time. Is this a good idea?"

Polkmom said… - I'm so excited!! I actually did it....FINALLY!! With added patience, I was able to see the mistake I was making, thus leading to my frustration. I have it set for a rolled stitch hem. Is this okay for sewing all seams or only hems? I'm going to try to sew a dress pattern tonight and would like to use my serger for the seams as well. Thanks for all of your support.
