How to Make (a LOT of) Ribbon with a Serger!

December 15, 2015 By Susan 6 Comments

I’m willing to bet that there are a few people out here who, just like me, have cute holiday fabric in their scrap bins they aren’t sure what to do with. I realized that with just a 9″ by 44″ wide cut of fabric, you can make ELEVEN yards of 1″ wide ribbon in 10 minutes…
