One of the things I really love about your videos is you use machines that most of us use. The reasonable priced machines rather than the ones that cost a arm & leg. I have this exact serger (from Walmart) . I also have the same sewing machine you use in your videos. You keep it so real! Thank you!
Hi Elisa, I like you videos and even for a professionel tailor there is something to learn 😊 A tip for you, though.. when you need to change the thread, cut the thread just above the cone and tie the new thread to the previous and pull the thread right through all the loops inside the machine. You may open the tension-plates a little, by pressing a tweezer in between till the knot is passed. For the upper thread you will have to take it out of the needles. Once the new thread is in place, you can cut the old off above the knots. Re-thread the needles 😊
Hello there and thanks for the tip :) I have known this for quite some time and even tried it way back when and it never works for me (but might work well for others, we all have to find what works for us, right? :) ), it just makes it easier and faster for me to rethread the serger as it is really not that difficult. Takes less than 1 minute :)
You’re a good teacher! Thanks for sharing your gift and your tips. I especially enjoyed the tips on removing a seam (and I hope that I never have to use them…haha!)
You’ve mentioned tip 4 in a previous video and it changed my life! I was rethreading every thread to be the same colour. Also, how to use server thread in your sewing machine same me so much money too.
I just got my brother serger and coverstitch and after watching a few of your videos I think I'm ready to get my feet wet. I love love all your videos. Thank you so much
I have the same serger. I need to do the labeling! I'm bouncing from machine to machine and usually just leave the settings on serger alone. The threading is the worst! Efficiency is super important! But I don't know all of the settings. I'm going to print out it like you did. That's such a good aid!
Oh wow - I’ve been using my serger for 25 years and love it. It’s really old now! But I still learned so much from watching this video, so thanks a huge amount from me ❤
Thank you so much! That was the most helpful advice for using the serger. I really learned a good many tips and to not be intimidated by the different dials! You are a wonderful teacher!
I got a DX last year off Marketplace. Like new. Never opened it until last night, heard all the serger threading horror stories 🙈 daggone thing was like new still threaded with original threading. Works like a dream. Never used one and I'm walking around my house looking for all the project clothing I've thrifted for years... for Just This 🤗 I watched problem 8 or 9 different videos of people threading my model and was able to thread it right away. Yours was one of them 😊 Thank you!
Thank you! So glad l found you! I used to have a top of the line,top brand serger, but my home burned down and l lost everything ten years ago. Never was able to replace my several sewing machines and such a nice serger... My sister found me an old but working serger at a yard sale and gave it to me. Several years later, when she passed away, l was given her serger- but it doesn’t thread easily and certainly doesn’t have that extra far left seam that l so loved. Doing rolled hems was a favorite on my tip top serger was so fun and satisfying. Sadly, now I have so darn much trouble threading the loopers on this one and couldn’t do a rolled hem to save my life. I wish l had a teacher, l would take lessons. ❤I’m 76 and have arthritis, old eyes, too. Please, do you have any advice to help me? Threading it literally took me a week and l kid you not. Tears were involved. So frustrating. I even used yellow, green, read and blue cones of thread to make it easier for me to understand. It is heartache. Sewing has always been a big part of my life since l was four years old…
Miss Alisa, God is good all the time! I have had a Brother 1034DX (exactly the machine you're demonstrating) for well over a year. I haven't dared even tried to use it because I was so confused as to the correct knobs settings, tension, everything. It has set, with it's cover on, in my sewing room, while I've worked around it with fear and trepidation of even bumping into it. Now here you are teaching me what I need to know to overcome my fear! 💙 🌹 🙏 🙏 Thank you for showing me what to do!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Such a great video Alisa, thank you! I have not done a lot of stretch sewing with my serger as yet apart from a couple of t shirts and dresses from t shirt material with moderate stretch. At the moment I am attempting to make a turtle neck skivvy with super stretchy jersey type fabric. Grrrrrr! The shoulder seams worked fine because I used stabilising ribbon. I have now pinned the sleeves into armholes in readiness but thought I would practice first with some leftover fabric, placing the 2 layers together. so glad I did because I have made a real mess of it. The layers will not stay together no matter what I do and the fabric will not stay level under the presser foot and I am unable to control it. I have decided I will sew it with my sewing machine and do a google search for a possible remedy. I am thinking jersey fabric just won't work. I do not have tis problem when sewing woven fabrics. At the moment I am not in love with my serger, but no doubt it is me, the operator!!!🐾🥰
I use a makeup brush to clean my serger. Your paint brush is a good idea though. The makeup brush is smaller and easier for me to store. I need to purchase a latch hook such as you showed. What a great idea. One thing I have learned is that every machine has unique tools that help you succeed. The latch hook would be one of those for a serger that I would not use on my sewing machines or cover stitch machine.
handy video, Can you do a video on serging with stretch fabrics and when it's necessary to use wooly nylon thread? Been sewing for decades but only got a serger a few years back and still haven't really ran much stretchy stuff through it. Critter content is always welcome , lovely little puddy.
One of the best tips I ever got about threading my machine was to tie a knot in the old thread with the new thread and pull your old thread out until your new thread is all away through
Just discovered your channel. Have had a server for many years hardly never use it . Your tips are very useful especially about the threads . You have inspired me to use my serger which I believe I was afraid of ! 😂 Also love your pleasant snd friendly style . Thank you.
Wow - some great ideas here & I especially love the idea of a journal recording particular aspects of each garment made/pattern used/etc. I came late to using serger & mine is currently out of use as the timing is off despite new needles😢 (the needles and looper are making contact) - have you got a video/are you able to do a video on addressing serger timing issues 🙏 - thanks!❤
Oh no, if the timings is off - gotta take it to the repair shop. I had timing off on my other serger (accidentally went over a metal zipper stopper) and the only way to fix it was to bring it to the specialist, otherwise you can probably do more damage by trying to fix it. That is my advice, so as always - do what is right for you.
@sarar4901 it does! Never use compressed air on any electronic! This is what I learned in the 70's when I first started working on electronic equipment just prior to moving to computer. Yes, I'm old🤪🤗
It is how the fabric is fed through - normal, gathering or stretching. Depending on the properties of the fabric or on the technique you might want to adjust differential feed for best results.
I'm just getting back into sewing after decades off. I'm enjoying your videos! Question... I really just want to be able to hem pants, jeans, knits, etc for my family. I'm not looking to make any garments from scratch. If I were to only buy one machine, do you think I can get away with just a 4 thread serger or do you recommend an actual sewing machine? I love the clean edges that the serger does automatically. Thanks for your input and wonderful videos!
I would buy a sewing machine and not serger for tasks like these, because you are probably looking at small repairs and maybe fixing a zipper here and there, darning a hole and with serger small more delicate repairs are almost impossible. This weekend i have another video go up and I will show my new sewing machine (it is not too simple and not too fancy) and along with that some great deals on other sewing machines, for those who are in the market. And you will see what mine can do as well, so that way you can determine what is that you need in your toolbox :) I hope this helps :)
Thanks for the tips. I've watched so many serger videos and I think I know how to do almost everything now -- except serge! LOL. Lots of videos show how to thread it, how to change threads, and offer special tips and tricks. But I cannot find one that shows how to sew an actual seam rather than a small piece of scrap material. It may sound silly, but unlike my sewing machine, there isn't any guide to follow along the right edge of the needle, so how do I get a straight seam? How do I know exactly how much is going to be cut off? Also, the needle isn't level with my sewing table; I don't have a large, flat surface to spread out my fabric like I do with my sewing machine. When sewing a large garment, how do I keep the fabric moving through in a straight line? The serger sews SO fast, I am afraid of cutting off too much. Any tips would be much appreciated. :)
Stumbled on your channel! Great videos! I have the same serger so i wanted to ask if you have a video or maybe if you know how to sow the bottom of dress pants with a serger. Don't really know how to explain it I'm just trying to adjust the lenght of them but the stitch is invisible or something on the outside i can only see the serge in the back? Would love to hear your thoughts ❤
I want a serger but the just look so hard to thread. I'm impatient I'll truly get angry & frustrated...🤔🤔😡 !! So I'm so in between on getting one..!! Great tips.
I somehow broke a needle in my brother 1034hd… I obviously knew it broke. I whipped out the manual… changed it out… painfully Re threaded my serger… and it’s missing something… I must have Re threaded this machine 40 times… starting from step one every single time…. … … then we were moving and I never was able to use it again. Fast forward 1.5 years, a renovation, flood and renovation later were unpacking and settling in. Im going to use these tips and a few more I got from you on another Serger video to moving tension to 0 to rethread and hopefully that will resolve the problem otherwise my basically new server has to go to a shop!
Laurie, hello there! Oh, so sorry to hear about your troubles :( you know, do try other tips and tricks, but it might be that your serger timing is off, then it probably has to go into the shop. It happened to me once, I broke a needle sewing over a zipper (by accident) and the impact threw off the timing of the serger, meaning the sequence and the timing at which all of the elements have to do their job - the loopers and the needles, and therefore it wasn't forming the loops/chain. To the naked eye all looked as normal, but from what I understand it only takes a little to disturb the whole system. After the shop fixed it - all worked well. Maybe it came with the warranty, by any chance?
Hello. I have the brother 34dx like yours. However when I sewing sometimes the fabric don’t feet smoothly and the stitches are stock together. Have you had that Essie?
Hello my question is, I live in tropical Puerto Rico and I noticed that my Singer Serger presser foot is a bit rusty. Is there anyway that I can change it to a clear plastic foot instead. Do the come in clear Serger Foot?
Great question and I feel that the best answer will be found by contacting Singer customer support, they sure know better and more about what they have and what would be the best solution for you. They have a live chat on their website, so you can get an answer pretty fast! :)
This is the worst serger. I had two and returned both. I even had professional help. I then bought a Baby Lock Victory which has Automatic tension, Air threading and I absolutely love it. I was able to work it from day one! Buy cheap, get cheap as with the Brother 1034DX. The Baby Lock Victory is more money but wow so easy to operate. It makes my sewing much more enjoyable.
@@ThoughtfulCreativity I have not seen it done that way. When you are doing it at the end that’s when you flip it over but when you’re doing it from the beginning you do not flip it over. You’re supposed to pull the chain out have the needle in your fabric and start sewing Also the other videos I have seen for hiding the chain at the end. You’re supposed to stitch off the fabric maybe by one or two stitches, lift your presser foot and then you are supposed to disengage the chain then flip it over, of course put your presser foot down and sew down a few inches and then chain off
Thank you so much! That was the most helpful advice for using the serger. I really learned a good many tips and to not be intimidated by the different dials! You are a wonderful teacher!

Hopefully your tips will work with my Janome sergery. Great tips...don't use pressurized air on any sewing machine or serger (my only tip)😊
I never have, but out of curiosity... Why not? Does it drive lint into the workings or something?
@sarar4901 it does! Never use compressed air on any electronic! This is what I learned in the 70's when I first started working on electronic equipment just prior to moving to computer. Yes, I'm old🤪🤗
Thank you great tips love the lach hook idea now if only I could figure out what the differential is ll be set lol
It is how the fabric is fed through - normal, gathering or stretching. Depending on the properties of the fabric or on the technique you might want to adjust differential feed for best results.

Use a tweezers to pull the short cut threads. Pulling with fingers often will grey the edge.
Do you have tips on how to sew bias? Like a triangle for a bib ?
Thank you for this video. May I
Ask what kind of seam that last one was? It’s so great!

@@ThoughtfulCreativity it may have… I will check. Thank you so much!
I am looking for a cotton spandex T-shirt material that doesn’t get all bumpy after washing. What fabric would you recommend?
Also where did you find the clamps ( not sure what they are called) on your serger threads? Thanks!
I show them and where I found them in this video - ua-cam.com/video/MYtZvaC-I_U/v-deo.html
Hello. I have the brother 34dx like yours. However when I sewing sometimes the fabric don’t feet smoothly and the stitches are stock together. Have you had that Essie?
I have a question. Using a serger do you back stitch?
Your cat is beautiful.
Hello my question is, I live in tropical Puerto Rico and I noticed that my Singer Serger presser foot is a bit rusty. Is there anyway that I can change it to a clear plastic foot instead. Do the come in clear Serger Foot?

Can it hem without cutting
Watch till the end of this video and then click on the next video about serger techniques that I point to and you will see :)
CAN IT DO A MERROW STITCH???
This is the worst serger. I had two and returned both. I even had professional help. I then bought a Baby Lock Victory which has Automatic tension, Air threading and I absolutely love it. I was able to work it from day one! Buy cheap, get cheap as with the Brother 1034DX. The Baby Lock Victory is more money but wow so easy to operate. It makes my sewing much more enjoyable.
Did you make the shirt you have on? It is so cut!
Sure did :) from scrap fabric, you can see it in this video - ua-cam.com/video/1iFLYTTTAgI/v-deo.html
I bought that Seeger and returned it right off.
Why?
🥰👍
Why did you buy a DX instead of a D?
You forgot to show how to sew in the tail at the beginning
Just do the same steps in reverse and that's it!
@@ThoughtfulCreativity I have not seen it done that way. When you are doing it at the end that’s when you flip it over but when you’re doing it from the beginning you do not flip it over. You’re supposed to pull the chain out have the needle in your fabric and start sewing
Also the other videos I have seen for hiding the chain at the end. You’re supposed to stitch off the fabric maybe by one or two stitches, lift your presser foot and then you are supposed to disengage the chain then flip it over, of course put your presser foot down and sew down a few inches and then chain off
Please speak slow...
Thank you so much! That was the most helpful advice for using the serger. I really learned a good many tips and to not be intimidated by the different dials! You are a wonderful teacher!
Love your tips, helpful
