On Craigslist there is an Eclipse Baby Lock Serger BLE1 DX for sale for $400. It has the owners manual, instructional video tape, 21 spools of thread. The seller said that I could borrow it for a day and try it out, since I'm in the same town. Well, I've never used a serger. The main purpose for wanting a serger is that I can make the fleece blankets for Project Linus a whole lot faster. The advice I need: is this a good price? Could I teach myself how to use it, or is it too complicated? I can sew, and have a Janome DC3050 that I'm able to understand and use. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Maureen
