I've taught myself to quilt using the internet and advice from friends, but no lessons.
I use my serger all the time and never had a lesson. There are great books to have as a reference. It was intimidating at first but now it's one of my best friends :lol:
The best and most user friendly universal serge instruction book I've found is Sewing with Sergers - The Complete Handbook for Overlock Sewing by Gail Brown and Pati Palmer.
