Thank you so much. I’ve had my Ovation for years and haven’t used it yet. I bought it because it was on sale. It intimidates me.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for serging along with me. The Ovation is an amazing serger... Take it step by step & keep me posted if you have an specific questions!
You are a perfect educator !!! Your explanations are thorough without being too 'talky'. I also love that you're careful to show exactly what you're talking about. You stay still enough to allow us to see only what we need to see... no extra hand or fabric or tool movement and, I can't stand this, no extra talking other than just what you're trying to teach us !! Bravo and Thank YOU.
Wow, thank you, I appreciate that! ...and thanks for watching
I'm not afraid to use my serger anymore! It is so kind of you to do these videos. You are awesome!!!! I am going to watch all of your UA-cam videos on sewing after I get to know my serger. Thank you!
Thanks so much!! I'm so happy that you're making friends with your serger :) ... Thanks for watching
What a fantastic idea to go through the manual with video support, and you did page 5 so elegantly, being so clear in your explanations, and speaking in such a friendly, helpful manner that you are going to have many fans! Now I have to go and watch the next one!
Thank you so much!! Please keep me posted if you have questions (and you can share videos with all your friends :)
Can't express how grateful I am for your videos! I don't even need to read the manual to get going with my new serger! You are awesome! Thank You!!!
Best class ever on the ovation for learning how each part works. I would have been lost when I first got my Ovation and still revisit these videos and learn each time I do. I find that some of the things that are seldom used or need to do I forget how to do it. In the case of tensions I have found on my particular machine I have to move the looper tension to the left just a tiny bit. Thank you Jennifer
Sorry I missed your comment...Happy to help, Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for this series. I’m currently still using my 37 year old serger, which I love. However, my mother died and left me her Babylock Ovation and now I can learn how to use it properly in the comfort of my own home and at my own pace.
So sorry about to hear about your Mom... Please keep me posted if anything specific comes up that I didn't cover... Thanks for serging along with me
LOVED the video. I have had my Ovation for a year. I went to the orientation. It was good, but I learned so much from this video. Thank you for your time to do it.
Thanks so much Kay... Thank you for watching!
Excellent explanations! Thank you❣️
You are so welcome! Thanks for serging along with me!
Thanks so much for this video, I have an Evolve I bought 12myears ago and love it. But my lessons were few and I find the instruction manual rather unhelpful. I can apply a lot of what you are teaching here to my Evolve and will definitely watch more of your videos. I am am so grateful for your generosity of time and your clear explanations. All the best to you.
Renee J thank you for the kind words... please keep me posted if you need help with anything & thanks for watching :)
Glad I found out about your videos. I really want to use my serger to make things. My old one that I had for years never really learn to use it. Was so glad when I could get the Ovation.
I'm glad you found my videos too! Please let me know if you need help with something specific and I'll add it to my list of "To Do" videos :)
Oh my goodness, where have you been all of my life?!? 😊
I wish I could have learned from your videos when I purchased my BabyLock Evolution three years ago!
Wow, I feel honored! ...thanks for the great start to my day. :)
Thank you for doing these videos. It is so helpful when you can't take classes right away. I just picked up my serger!
I am soooo very glad I found your site. I love my Ovation but I wasn't getting full use of it. It can be a bit intimidating if you don't use it regularly. I have a koala table for it now. So it's always ready to go. I learn best by watching AND reading so this is perfect. Thanx so much.
Tomi Byers I'm so happy you found my YouTune Channel :) please keep me posted if you have a question that I don't have a video for ...thanks so much!
Loved the class. As I have said before your classes are the best! Can't wait for next class!
Thank you for watching... I know that there are so many talented instructors, I'm so happy that you found me!!
Thank you for posting these videos. They have been so helpful.
So sorry I missed your comment... Thank you for watching!
I own an Evolution. Haven’t used it much yet. But I needed to thread for cover stitch and just couldn’t remember. Your video to the rescue. For sure I’ll be checking out all your videos. Thanks for sharing/ educating.
So sorry I didn't see you comment earlier... happy to help, thanks for watching
Thank you so much. I really appreciate your videos. I have had my serger for quiet some time and am a bit embarrassed to say you showed me 4 different parts of my machine I did not know existed. Looking forward to the rest of your classes so I can fully utilize my awesome and awesomely expensive serger. My store I bought it at does have new owner serger classes...during the middle of the day and in the middle of the week.
I'm so happy you're watching... please keep me posted if you have a question I haven't answered :)
thank you, this is wonderful and I can't wait to watch all the other videos. I'm planning on purchasing an Ovation in the near future and watching these videos is very helpful. I have the Evolution now so a lot of these items are on that machine as well.
So Sorry I missed your comment. Thanks for watching! Did you ever get your Ovation Serger?
You, my dear, deserved a standing 'ovation' for your thoughtful and very, very informative and useful videos on the Ovation serger. I have owned an Evole since they first came out..16 years ago?? Anyway, I never did get all the classes that were offered as the business left town and I had to travel a distance to continue. THIS UA-cam Tutorial on the Ovation is SPECTACULAR!!! You are to be commended 10x over for you care and thoroughness in covering this machine. Can't thank you enough for this, truly! Can you tell me how many videos you actually have, so that I can look them up and don't miss any?
Again, many, many thanks for your time.
Hi Joy, Thank you so much
Yes! I found them, thanks..and I'll be checking out your other videos too. Love your instructional style. :-) Keep up the good work. Best to you.
Thanks Carol ...I'm so happy that you are enjoying my videos :)
Thank you so much for this video! You are so helpful!

So sorry I missed your comment... Thank you for watching!

Thank you so much, Keep me posted if you need help with your new serger :)
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

So Sorry I missed your comment. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your time and good advices
Thank you for serging along with me! Sorry for the delayed response
Thank You
So Sorry I didn't see your comment until now! Happy to help, Thanks so much
Thank you so much for this video !!!! I've got an Ovation for ... about a year now, and I didn't had the opportunity to use it, so I'm a bit lost ! I live in France, and I found no video in French to explain all of this as clearly as you do. I'm going to watch all your videos step by step.
I'm so happy I can help you ... I'm always a little "jealous" of the places my videos and patterns get to go without me. Please let me know if you have a specific question, I'll add it to my list of possible upcoming videos :)
Are you going to be more jealous if I tell you I live near the sea in the South of France ?.....
Well, concerning this video, I now better understand my Ovation, so thanks again !
Excellent information
Glad it was helpful!
Hi, absolutely love your video series on the Ovation. Can I ask, do you ever have problems with stripped screws that hold the needles in? Mine on O2 has just started to play up and I wondered if you could do a video about how to solve this please? Thank you
Thanks so much! Are you saying that the little screw in the 02 position is stripped so it doesn't turn any more? If so, I think you'll need to take it in to a service person to remove the screw (if you can't get it out yourself)... and replace it with a new screw. To try to keep this from happening again, don't tighten down so hard... Also, sometime you may need loosen the screw next to the one you're trying to change needles. Let me know if this helps!
Dear Lady J,
I've just got a Babylock Ovation and I am delighted with it.
I run into your video: great explanation, thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience.
Let me ask you something. I was searching for a hint how to pick up a lost needle. I knew about the magnetic drawer but unfortunately the needle dropped when the blade protection cover was opened...so I couldn't find where the needle went.
Do you have another hint ??
I didn't find how to open (in an obvious way) the bottom of the machine where the needle drawer is put.
I am so sorry I didn't see your comment until now. If the needle fell somewhere inside the machine *and you have enough muscles, you can pick it up with the doors open and turn it upside down... Sometime it will fall out. if it doesn't... Hand walk the needle up and down to make sure it's not anywhere that will interfere with the operation of the serger. I'm pretty sure I must have at least one needle some where at the base of my Ovation... So far they have been harmless.
thank you this video was so usefup
So sorry I missed your comment... Thank you for watching!
Hello, I have had my ovation 8 years. It has been sitting unused for about 5 years. Is there basic cleaning you demonstrate all I need or do I need to bring it in to be serviced? Really hardly used but I am wanting to get into sewing, but don’t want to chance harming my machine. Thanks!!!
5 years is a long time to sit unused. To be safe, I would bring it to your Baby Lock Dealer and have the service department love it up for you. They will make sure it's clean and ready to go! Then keep me posted if you have specific questions, I love answering Subscriber Q & A. Thanks for watching
Great tutorial. You said nothing but thread in threading ports. I use the wire provided to thread 12 wt thread. Do you, or can you explain the selector dial, A-D and why. I saw somewhere A for narrow, B for wide but not sure.
Hi Lisa... You read my mind! Stitch Selector Dial is top on my list of topics... stay tuned :)
what side do you put the thread in for the clips in the back. I was getting interference from other classes as you talked, My notes say c1 & 2 enter left C3 enter on right FACING THE MACHINE FRONT IS THIS CORRECT?
All of the guides are to the left of the final groove the thread needs to clip into for C1, C2 and C3 when you're looking at them from the front of the serger. I hope that helps!
I have a pair of twill cotton drape panels that are unlined. Could you do a segment on how to line drapes and use those woven bands to insert pins to make pinch pleats and such? I really need your help.
+Garry Turner Hi Garry, Thanks so much for checking in! Unfortunately, I do not know anything about pinch pleats :( (I wish I had time to learn how....) Let me look and see if I can find you some good tutorials from someone who specializes in home dec!
+J Stern Designs... Here's what I found for pinch pleats. www.textile-love.com/2012/01/diy-pinch-pleat-drapes-sewing-drapery.html ua-cam.com/video/P5t9tgAVl9w/v-deo.html ...and here's one for lining and pinch pleats www.designsponge.com/2012/03/sewing-101-pleated-lined-drapes.html ...Hope that helps!
Thank you. I enjoy your shows.
Brilliant thank you
So sorry I missed your comment... Thank you for watching!
So the Evolve Serger next Evolution and then newer one is Ovation. Correct? 😃 😃 😃
So I can still watch the Ovation manual ? 😃 😃 😃
Or should I watch Evolution videos? Is there that much difference between the sergers?
Basics close enough to the same for all of them?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALL YOUR HELP! 😃 😃 😃
I THANK YOU FOR ANSWERING ME SO QUICKLY! 😃 😃 😃
So sorry for the delayed response.... I'm working to catch up on some missed questions and comments. You can watch the Ovation Serger Manual to learn a lot about your Evolution... They are very similar (as well as the new Triumph!)
I have a ovation serger and what I have a problem with is threading the needles and where to put threads [n thread guides
So sorry I missed your comment... It helps to put the knife down to make more room to thread the needles. I put the left needle thread into the thread guide first, then the right so they don't get tangled up. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
Can you go over how to thread the machine for page 24 the blanket stitch. I can't seem to get it right. Thanks.
So sorry I missed your comment...(That's a great topic, if you haven't found a tut for that yet, I'm putting it on my short list of upcoming topics) Thank you for watching!
Is there a way to miter coners on a quilt using the binding tool,.
So sorry I missed your Comment. I'll have to research this topic! Thanks for watching
Do oil the ovation ? Thanks for information
I'm so sorry I missed your comment... If it gets noisy, you can put a drop of oil on bar under the upper loo...Turn the hand wheel and you'll see where it slides up and down and might need a little oil. Never put oil in the thread ports!! Thank you for watching!
Is the Babylock Evolve Serger close to the Ovation Serger? 😃 😃 😃
If not, what serger name is close to it? 😃 😃 😃
Cheryl Grider the Baby Lock that’s closer to the Ovation is the Evolution. 😁
