I have a 440QE Bernina with embroidery module. I also have an earlier Bernina artista 130 and I just got my first serger - the Bernina 1150MDA. I will be picking up the Janome 1000CPX coverlock machine end of January.

I totally agree that now that I have a serger I have more things to embroider. I just made a simple tablecloth and embroidered sashings for my Ducks Game party on Monday. I was able to serge the tablecloth together and the edges, and I embroidered lettering like Go DUCKS and U of O on yellow sashing in green thread. I never would have done this without the serger. oh - and I also made 12 huge green cloth napkins wtih yellow serged edges. I didn't even roll the hems - just serged them. Nothing fancy - but it will be great for the party. I love having all and I have had all 3 up and going at the same time - while one was embroidering the letters, I was stitching and/or serging the tablecloth sections together. Embroidery does take a long time to finish.
