    This instructor does a great job of teaching, while sewing samples, so students can actually understand what she is talking about. Good job!

    Thank you. This was simple and to the point, just the way I learn best. I struggle to concentrate with excess talking or long videos. This was perfect.

    If you have an overcast presser foot for your sewing machine, you can create the same basic type of hem as a serger; it's just slower on a sewing machine. A serger will trim the edge of the fabric before it sews, whereas the sewing machine will not do this. I think there is a special foot for cutting, but I don't think you can combine it with an overcast foot, so either way it's going to be faster with a serger. If you cut your fabric straight, you should be able to use just a sewing machine.

    Did your serger come with the blue dot on the pressure foot, or how did you determine it's position? Thanks

    What happens to the few inches of threads in the beginning and end. How do you "finish" the piece ?

    • @mmmmmmmmmm297
      @mmmmmmmmmm297 5 років тому +1

      Take a large eye needle, fish the tail through and weave back through the serged edge, then cut off any extra.

    Do you have to use a straight stitch before serging? I didn't think you did.

  • @sandynowak9176
    @sandynowak9176 11 років тому

    janome are famous for slipping, check to make sure both your loopers are threaded properly, rethread them. I have the same problem, before I figured it out I was ready to throw it out a window.

    While I have never used the Baby Lock Protege, I have had the Baby Lock Eclipse, Imagine Wave, & now the Evolve, and while I know they are far more expensive than the Protege, if you are new to serging, and have any way you can swing it, I would keep an eye on Ebay for an Eclipse ( appx. $500), Imagine ($700 to with wave $1,515), Evolve ($800) those are average prices, they vary. Protege should be OK too, just more work.

    This is pretty much what I've been looking for. I'm just wondering, you said a seam stitch prior to serging is not always necessary. I'm doing a pair of leggings. So I would not need to do a seam stitch first, right? Also, I'm curious about the hem. How would I know where to fold the hem up to after serging it at the ankles of the leggings?

    • @carolynrogers1510
      @carolynrogers1510 2 роки тому

      You can assemble leggings on serger yes, seam will hold fine, then turn up hem and top stitch with a twin stretch needle on sewing machine. I would not even bother to trim that raw edge, it won’t fray.

    • @Dana-qd1kf
      @Dana-qd1kf 3 роки тому +2

      You can use a zigzag stitch on the edge of the fabric.

    • @bellaswan1459
      @bellaswan1459 3 роки тому +2

      I would zigzag and then go down with a straight stitch. This post beginning 9 years ago you probably already figured that out.
