    So happy to have found you. Got my machine 15 years ago and never could figure out how to thread it. Lol put it away and stuck to my kenmore, now a phaff. Thank you. You can teach an old dog new tricks. Just need a teacher!

    Threading the serger is critical to having even one inch of your seam turn out properly! I think I will return to video #3 often. A gazillion thanks for this series! You are delightful to watch; you inspire confidence in your audience by the up- tone of your voice and the confidence in which you break down the complex into the simple doable parts. In short, you are instantly recognized as an expert. Excuse me, I have to go label my serger now!

    Perfect!!! Sure beats the heck out of trying to figure out the manual - I think I just bought this exact serger. Interesting that the manual NEVER EXPLAINS what a looper is. But you do in your first video of this series. Thank you!!!!!

    All sergers are different. I don't think anyone could learn to thread their machine with this video because it does go to fast but really what people need to understand is that with practice, it can be done this easily. The best thing about this video was showing me what order to thread my machine. After seeing this video that will be so easy to remember.
