As a fellow quilter I am amazed that you piece with your serger, I had never thought of that, brilliant! That way you would have perfectly cut 1/4 seams. Mitered borders boarders intimidate me... maybe you could do a tutorial post on those? *hint hint* :-)Samhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06518991565928059734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-873484124009887115.post-77710169303867520862012-03-12T03:49:26.621+11:002012-03-12T03:49:26.621+11:00I am loving your serger series and have been check...I am loving your serger series and have been checking your site daily for entries. I bought a serger about a year ago and have used it very little (I think I have been intimidated). But after I read your article I took it out and rethreaded it (I tried once and was unable to). Not only did I get it right but the stitches were right on (I did the 4 color thread as you had suggested). Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, and for inspiring me!Eileenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12674702615677958240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-873484124009887115.post-52890469228883353072012-03-09T23:23:23.590+11:002012-03-09T23:23:23.590+11:00Picked my serger up yesterday.

But have big plans for this weekend!<br><br>Differential feed and tension are confusing me at the moment, think I will do as you suggest and just play around with the settings on scrap fabric.Lawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15487119675699417109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-873484124009887115.post-70756389977646572272012-03-09T12:58:27.429+11:002012-03-09T12:58:27.429+11:00Great series Sam.

It sat in a corner for months after I bought it and I only fiddled with it periodically. I wanted to combine quilting and serging and found a great book "Serge and Merge" and took a few classes at my LQS. Now I piece with my serger since I've learned about its 1/4 seam allowance notch. I've even mastered mitered corners for borders. Can't wait till you post more. Looking forward to learning more about my serger.DeAnna S.http://www.blogger.com/profile/13892158681613251860noreply@blogger.com
