Thank you for the comment about adding to the side piece at the underarm area. I think that will help those who have problems with shoulder straps that slip down.

I noticed your Singer Serger doesn’t seem to have a seam guide. I have the Stylist Singer model and it doesn’t have one either. It really really irks me, as it seems like a very basic tool. Do you know why our models don’t have one? Have you just drawn markers on the looper cover to use as guides? I find it insufficient bc it’s too far away to be accurate.

Wow! Had a problem with the fabric bunching up after the needle and I don’t have much experience with a serger. Mine is an older model than yours. It was the bottom knife that was too low! I raised it and it fixed the problem! Thank you for mentioning this!

Donde puedo conseguir el manual , gracias

I'd love to see a FBA on a (standard) B/C cup bodice pattern, but the client is a J/K cup.

Thanks for sharing your time and knowledge

Thanks so much. I recently bought this pattern, and as a beginner I was very intimidated. I still am, but now I can follow you along! Your top looks lovely 😊

Next time please show the stiches you are talking about ,

The kit i bought barely had enough mesh.

Next week?

These arw valid points. I'm happy I heard this. I also really consider this when buying one. Just one question if you are using your cutting table for work and also sewing, do I need to recalibrate each time the cutting board moves?

You have do hangups, don't you. Did you not get classes with your machine? They would have solved many of your problems. Of course, teaching your children not to touch helps a lot as does a drop of fraycheck.

I have a Janome CPX 1000 and I absolutely love it.

The stich finger keeps falling off my Brother serger and It does not seem to hold on to it securely.

Hey What do you think of ELNA?

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I threaded for the first time in less than 30 minutes. You’re awesome!

I have this machine. I got it in the mid 90s.

Great video! This helped me so much!!!

Regarding Stains, I just got a bunch of pencil lines out of white linen with Dawn Dish soap. Yep, Happily surprised. Thanks for the Canadian content!

does this have stictch patterns?

I know this video is 2 years old, but hoping you see my comment. When it comes to the root, and buying bras vs. making them, is there guide or way to know whether you have tall roots, short roots, wide roots, etc? There is information in a subreddit I'm in as far as what bras work for which root sizes, but I have no idea how to figure that out. Lol.

Could you please give the needles number?

Thank you this was so helpful.😊

Terrific tutorial!! Thank you for sharing.

This is the first time I have looked up videos on sergers, and this video is the first one I clicked. I am so glad that I did! You make sergers seem less intimidating, and clearly explain how they work. My next-door neighbor (and the sweetest Friend!) has FIVE sergers, and wants me to learn how to use one. You, my dear, made me want to learn more about them! Thank you for sharing!

bullet print fabric by the yard how much for whole sale

Your video has been super helpful. Thank you.

Where’s the water at for humidity?

I am a super beginner seamster and i wanna do this to basically ALL my shirts and tshirts and thank you loads to show this!! Then i gained more experience and confidence i will try it out !!

What is the standard numbers for a 3 thread serger. I keep getting large loops

What about if your thread keeps coming out the left needle 😂 I’ll thread it and pull the read to the back so I know it’s threaded but some how I’ll check the chain and the left needle thread is no longer there

I have made 3 Emmies and they are in constant rotation!

I'm not sure if you still have this CS combo. I have two Pfaff sewing machines and a Pfaff serger, but my CS is a Janome Coverpro CPX2000 that I don't love, but don't hate. I've barely used it since I bought it with greater garment-making intentions, but life intervened. Now I'm saving to get a Babylock eventually. However, I can suggest that your machine may need a good cleaning and oiling if it's jumping around a lot. My Pfaff serger was doing something similar when I took it to a class and the instructor (who's a good friend a a great technician too) said I just needed to give it a spa day. I used to work on vintage machines a lot and I buy parts from her shop, so she wasn't trying to make me bring it in for a service that it didn't need. It really helped, some machines are thirstier than others and a little fluff can throw the balance off easily too.

Thanks a bunch for this helpful video. Been working on an older 14U44, which has knobs on the front panel not dials like yours. It’s been a trip and a half, oh what fun😢😅😂

That top dial that you didn’t know is the “pressure regulating thumb screw” according to the manual I found. Turning it right is more tension and changes the amount of pressure on the material. I haven’t figured out what the handle does

Found one of these abandoned in the basement at work. Currently trying to get it restored

The best advice i can give as a seamstress is before you thread your machine, just run it and watch what it does. Do this with all your machines. I learned so much about industrial machines, in the beginning by just watching the bobbin and needle interact. When i got my serger I did the same thing, just watched it run for a bit, then when i threaded it, I would turn the hand wheel to see what that thread was doing and where it was going. You might need to take some pieces off to see it all, but thats also good to do, being able to fix your machine when shes acting up is priceless. I've taken apart so many sewing machines at this point I'm pretty comfortable fixing just about any issues that crop up now. When you're ready get some scrap fabric and test all the settings on the machine, its the best way to know how things are going to work with different types of fabric.

thank you!!

Love it! Everything you need to be cozy and comfortable❤❤❤

Hi dear sister, thank you for your video. It is very helpful. I am able to thread my serger after watching your video. Keep doing the good work ❤❤❤

Do you know if the ambition 620 has the same settings reset issue?

Enjoyed your linen descriptions! Once upon a time I sewed everything I wore including tailored woolens to double knits🤦🏻‍♀️ Would love to learn and wear more casual looks, need good advice on seam finishes, and would love some comfortable casual pants!❤

très intéressant j'ai un écran pas très large et je ne voyais pas bien le tutoriel mais c'était avant de voir le lien du blog !! merci je vais pouvoir tester tout ça ^_^

please don't talk so much-what's with the stupid finger pointing?

So I bought a serger but I’m scared to use it. You have to give some extra room to finish rough ends because of the knives?

My serger is not cutting went hi am serger

My story: bought a Janome 8900 because I was dazzled by the throat space (11") as I was doing mostly quilts at the time. It has 285 stitches and 3 alphabets! Whee! Fast forward 10 years. I still love the machine, it's wonderful to use and so easy. How many stitches do I use? The same 3 all the time. I love the threader but the cutter is a little overrated. Leaves nests underneath. I've learned to pull the bobbin thread up - nicer results (esp in quilts). However, after having the machine 8.5 years, the motherboard went. Where I bought it (an hour drive away) was nice enough to sell me the part at cost but I had to pay for the labour: $700 Canadian total. I was tempted to dump the machine and just buy a semi-industrial straight stitch with the money (like a Brother 1500 or a Juki 2010). It's all fixed, so I'll roll with that for now. Would I buy another computerized? No. Over the years, I've, ahem, collected several mechanical machines from the 70s and older. There's a zen to sewing with them. I also know that they should last a long, long time. I sew a lot of garments now and the old machines do just fine. If the 8900 goes on the fritz again, I'll see what's out there that doesn't have a computer.

My serger hates me
