This was one of the best tutorials I have ever seen! I just got mine this weekend and haven’t had a chance to unbox it yet. I have sewn all my life but never had a serger. I was a little-a lot-nervous, but you have empowered me!!! Thank you.
Wow! This is like a private class on how to use the machine. It's the most detailed & useful tutorial I've ever watched. I'm seriously considering upgrading my old serger for this model. I'm sure I will watch some parts again when the machine is in front of me. Thank you so much for your time and hard work.
Thank you so much for this comment, you have no idea what it means to me! I did put a lot of time and effort into this video so I’m glad you enjoyed it! And totally worth upgrading 😉
Das ist mit Abstand das beste Video von der Acclaim was ich je gesehen habe. Es hat mir sehr geholfen. Vielen Dank dafür und viele Grüße an das andere Ende der Welt😊 (Germany)
Thanks so much! I have been rather scared of my acclaim, which I have since Christmas. I love that you address even „obvious“ things such as the electricity plug. Clearly one knows that, but it is lovely to just watch a super detailed step by step and follow it as you talk. It is the very best instruction - even much better than the official acclaim youtube instructions by the company itself. Thanks again and happy sewing 🧷✂️🌹
I used your suggestions for cleaning & maintenance on my Imagine today. I got out my manual & it had the directions for removing the needle plate which you had demonstrated. So I did that. Then I went ahead & brushed out everything I could. Lastly I turned it on its back, took off the base & cleaned it & removed all the lint, which wasn't that much considering all the flannel & terry cloth I've been sewing for years. Keeping it brushed out regularly must really help. Now I know that if I get an Acclaim it's pretty much the same machine as far as maintenance, & very do-able. Thanks again for your helpful video.
Thank you so much for the very complete instructions! I am considering buying an Acclaim n I feel more confident in my decision now. I have saved your video to refer to later as well.
Thanks for the advice Megan, I purchased the Acclaim on the 1st of January 2024, it is fantastic, thanks for your advice and this wonderful video, Deb 😄
I've had Baby Lock sergers for 30 years. I learned some very useful things from this video. I don't have an Acclaim (yet..) but am considering it. I don't know if the A for L needle & B for R needle applies to other sergers in the BL line or just the Acclaim. But knowing that is helpful. The part at the end about cleaning the machine, removing the stitch plate, & opening the bottom is useful & helpful for any BL serger I would think. I'm going to try it with my Imagine because I use it a lot for very linty flannel & terry cloth items. I have no doubt it's full of lint. It might save a need for servicing. I almost didn't watch because it's such a long video; I was afraid it would not be very concise or well organized. Your video is excellent & the time stamps option to go to the pertinent parts makes it even more useful.
I am so excited Megan, I have literally just bought this machine home today and I am going to watch this full video tomorrow as I thread my machine up! It's a ripper and I am so excited to start using it! Your channel is brilliant and so helpful xx Thanks, Kristen
This was an incredibly helpful video, thanks so much for doing this. I purchased my Acclaim about 3 months ago, and do not regret buying this fantastic machine.
I have this machine! You have given the best BEST tutorial I have ever watched! Thank you! Question: in what situations would I want to lock the cutting blade?
This is the best video I have ever seen. I feel so much more comfortable using my Acclaim now. Thank you for making this. The camera work is perfect. I also appreciate the flow and information you provided and not the personal time-wasting sillyness other people put in their videos. Thanks, again.
Thanks for your comment! I’m glad you liked the camera angles. I tried really hard to get the best angles I could and really give those thinking about purchasing this machine a really in-depth look at what it does
What a fabulous class on this machine. So wonderfully and clearly done, thank you! Just wanted to mention that it would be advisable to get a philip's head screwdriver for those underneath screws 🙂
Thank you so much. I just bought my machine last week. Great tutorial. Can you answer a question? If my machine is threaded with four threads, where is my guide for a 5/8” seam allowance?
just finished watching your review on Sabrina Slims and loved , loved it . I purchased this pattern on Friday, I have since subscribed to Sew and Tell Australia - Regards Leonie from cold New South Wales , Australia

I just bought a used Acclaim and watched your video to help me get through the learning curve. Thank you so much for all your well presented insight.
