I use my serger a lot for putting together very simple quilts. I do only use 3 threads, and I iron all. I find that the seams are not that bulky. I would never suggest using the serger for a very intricate quilt because it is very hard to match seams. I have never put together a puff quilt but I have seen them, and I think a serger would work good. I love using the serger on quilts I know are going to be used for children and babies, since they will be washed alot and the serger will keep the seams from raveling.
