We won't be making it to Antwerp this time, but it's on the list!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04115213563003924174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8400826347245670815.post-37382604324386418102017-12-13T23:30:13.841+00:002017-12-13T23:30:13.841+00:00Hah, I do an overlocker but it's so temperamen...Hah, I do an overlocker but it's so temperamental that I barely ever use it. One day I'll work out how to make it like me, I'm sure...<br /><br />A lot of the colder European cities set up street markets in November and December, little wooden huts and stalls covered in Christmas lights. They mostly sell food and Christmas paraphernalia, and it's festive and magical and atmospheric and wonderful. Also I'll take any excuse to go to Belgium!

I'm a fickle woman. Hah. Love the color combo. Do you have a serger? If yes, you can use the differential feed turned up to serge the raw edge, which gathers it in just enough to easily press up and machine hem from the top. If not, time to buy one. :-)<br /><br />What are the Christmas markets in Bruges? Sounds exotic. Have a good holiday!
