I e used a serger years ago when my kids were young. I made all their shirts, pajamas, robes and even ventured into making jeans. Needless to say, I wore it out. I purchased a new one several years ago and haven’t used it very much at all. I’m expecting two new great grandchildren at the end of the year. I’m going to make receiving blankets and burp cloths. Thank you for I inspiring me to get it out and use it again. Love all your tutorials. They are wonderful and so clearly shown and explained. Thank you for being the lovely lady that you are
I bought an older one from my daughter's mother in laws estate. She was a beautiful lady and my friend. I had no clue how to use it. Thanks a bunch. Blessings on all you do.
I like all your videos but this one was extra special. I have had a serger just sitting there for years. You have inspired me to try a few things. You make it look so easy. Thank you. The curves are the hardest though and that’s where I tend to give up.
I’m glad to know that I’m not the only one who has had a serger for years and haven’t used it. I did go to use it once, but the thread got messed up and now it needs to be retreaded. 🥴
I really loved this tutorial. I have a surger and it has been sitting in the closet for almost 14 years. Now you’re giving me a major incentive to pull it out. I guess the only real hesitation is threading the darn thing. But at least the directions are on the machine and if I follow the color codes I think I’ll be OK. Thank you again so much. watching you is like a breath of fresh air. Thank you so much for your time and effort.😊
Hi Debbie. If it has been sitting unused for 14 years it may not work. Be ready to turn it in for a self thread serger - Baby Lock. It is great👍 Glad you liked the serger projects. Thanks for watching💗and happy sewing😍
Thank you very much for your inspiring tutorials. I began sewing last year and thought I needed a serger when I was still learning to use my sewing machine. Your videos give me confidence to try new things and I admire how you don't let the issue with your hand hold you back.
Good morning Cheryl, great tips on using a surger for making simple projects. The projects all were really useful and cute. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos. Have a great day.❤
I’m looking forward to get a serger next Christmas… it’s the first in my wishlist… thank you so much for teaching us easy projects to make with it. I hope this is the first of a series using this machine.
Wow thank you for this video I needed this info to make a burp pad and blanket for our neighbor. I think I have to wait a bit to find out if it will be a boy or a girl LOL But this video will help make it fast for sure BIG HUGS to you Sherrill for this video and God's Blessing to you ALL.
Thank you for this video! I just recently got my first server and am still learning the basics! Your videos are always so easy to follow. You are a great teacher! I look forward to learning more about using a serger!
It would be helpful to go through the setup of the machine for these projects. It looked like you were using both needles, so a 4 stitch overlock setup? On that headband, you could serge a long thread tail and lay it inside the fold for easy turning. These are great serger projects. Thanks!
I have never used a server, I don’t think I could use one to be honest, they look difficult to use to me. Shame as it appears you get a good finish when using them. Liked your ideas thank you.
Hi Karen. I would visit a sewing machine dealer store and look at the self thread sergers. My Baby Lock is self thread and I love it. Glad you liked the serger projects. Thanks for watching💗and happy sewing😍
Hi Sherrill. Thank you so much. Can teach us how to do serge on pants or skirt without cutting the material eg like when we do hemming we use hand stich or sew it by folding the material.
Hi Sue. If you purchased the serger from a sewing machine dealer store, they usually offer a class on how to thread and do other basic settings. Some Baby Lock sergers are partially self threading. I recommend you go to a dealer store and ask if they can help you. In you users manual there is a picture with colored threads showing where to place each thread. I was a P.E. teacher at a community college. I also taught ballet, tap, and jazz at a private dance school. I have been sewing since I was 12 years old. I hope you keep trying to learn about your serger. Thanks for watching💗 and happy sewing😍
Hi Mary. It is a Baby Lock Triumph and it is a self threading serger. It is sew much easier to thread than the old serger machines. Glad you liked the serger projects. Thanks for watching💗and happy sewing😍
Hi Ursula. Visit a sewing machine dealer store and they will demonstrate one for you. Ask to look at the self threading sergers (Baby Lock). They are so much easier to thread. Glad you liked the serger projects. Thanks for watching💗and happy sewing😍
Hi Mary. I used my first quilt on our queen size bed. I looked awful. Next day I took it to the Goodwill store. With practice your quilts will get better. You will learn so much as long as you keep trying. Thanks for watching💗and happy sewing😍
