Sew Sister: Our Fluffy Easter Bunny
http://eastgatehill.blogspot.com/2015/04/our-fluffy-easter-bunny.html
Our Fluffy Easter Bunny. Isn't complete with out an Easter Bunny. This is our bunny's big day! Here he is, almost two years old.We don't decorate him, because he would eat the decorations, then the chocolate, and then get sick. He gets a lot fluffier, but he has haircuts often because his bottom is much easier to manage without all that fluff. 'Happy Easter'. Pellets, Grass, Hay and that is all! His other job when he is not the Easter Bunny. To be a compost maker for the garden. Posted by Sew Sister.

http://eastgatehill.blogspot.com/2015/05/merrylock-4-thread740dsa-aka-rubina.html
Merrylock 4 Thread740DSA : Aka Rubina 740DSA. I found this video by chance when I was looking for more information on the Merrylock 740DS 4 Thread Overlocker. This video's is in Russian I think, (forgive me if I have this wrong). I found the this video really good to follow, even though it is not in English my native language. It seems that the Merrylock 740DSA. Goes under another brand name. Of ' Rubina 740DSA Overlocker'. Who would have thought? Posted by Sew Sister. Wednesday, May 13, 2015.

If you want to purchase this ebook. I am afrai...

This skirts mine looks rather shapeless on the dummy.but easy to. Wash just twist it and it stays all nice and crinkly. Putting my smells on everything. Off to explore the neighbourhood.

How to do a Rolled Hem: Merrylock 740DSA. Parts of my Merrylock 740DSA. Manual is missing, the pages for doing a 3 thread rolled hem. Are not there. Now I can say with confidence that using the Merrylock 2020. Manual I downloaded (address in post below) has been a great help and very useful. Because now I can do the 3-thread rolled hem and I'm so pleased with myself. Although I will need to fine tune it, perhaps by using different thread, the one I'm using is weird.funny stuff! When looking at page 38.
