Sergers are fast! Save time in production & cut down your fitting time. Not only that! A serger will create professional finishes & immaculate seams.What is a Serger?
A serger, which is also known as an overlock machine, produces professional finishes on garments and other projects. It does this by a process of knitting, rather than sewing.
A Serger is Fast!
The serger accomplishes all its tasks quickly and easily. It is the real workhorse of the sewing room and will speed a great many tasks immensely.
While most regular sewing machines can stitch between 700-1100 stitches per minute, a serger beats this by a lot, and can make up to 1700 stitches per minute.
What Can a Serger Do?
Serge your way to becoming a sewing pro with a serger in your sewing room.In a nutshell, a serger can:
- Neatly bind and finish seams, and cut excess fabric from seams at the same time
- Professionally finish unlined garments
- Perform rolled edge finished hems
- Make beautiful, delicate narrow, pucker-free seams
- Make decorative edgings such as ruffled edges and scalloped trims
- Flawlessly hem ruffles with rolled edging
- Neatly and easily attach lace and other trims
- Automatically gather
- Sew stretchy knit fabrics with ease, including finishing sweater knits
- Add strength with stretch seams
- Decoratively and functionally seam fabrics by flatlocking
- Create reversible items
- Finish garments without facings
- Feed 2 layers of fabric perfectly (the serger’s secret to handling knits)
With an overlock machine, you will have no more unraveling messy edges, either when you pre-wash your fabric or inside your finished garments or projects.
You can sew knits with ease with a serger. If this were the only thing that a serger could do it would be well worth it to get one right now! But lucky for us the serger can do lots more!
Serging is Easy!
There is a myth that the serger is complicated or hard to learn to use. This may have been true long ago. But today many well-designed, user-friendly, high-quality sergers are available. There are features that make some sergers literally a breeze to use.
The Janome 634d, with its Jet Threading, is truly a breeze to use!
You Can Do It!
I was scared myself and hesitated to buy my first serger. I was reluctant to take on the task of learning something new which I feared as difficult.
As is often the case, all this procrastination and worry was silly; I was serging projects the very first day I got my serger! It was not complicated to learn: it was easy and straightforward. There was no learning curve to get started and I only regretted not buying one sooner.
I had never sewn on knit fabric successfully before-- I tried but made a mess using my sewing machine! But I followed a pattern and made my first t-shirt pretty much immediately after I got my serger.
I learned more and more as I serged on, and I was continually amazed by how many new things my overlocker enabled me to do.
