    I use my serger to make most of my Linus Quilts. I make them envelope style with the serger and then do some basic machine quilting using a decorative stitch with my regular machine. Instead of binding I use the same decorative quilting stitch to sew about 3/8 inch inside the outside seam. That encloses the sergered seam and gives it body like a binding.
