I've never used my serger for quilting, but love it for other sewing. Sometimes it seems like I don't use it a lot, but it's one of those things that that sure come in handy when you need them. They make a wonderful hem. I just finished making curtains for my Mom's sunroom - 14 windows! I still occasionally sew a few clothes for myself and now with a baby granddaughter about to arrive, I'm sure I'll be sewing for her. I would keep your serger Mamabird. As soon as you get rid of it, you'll probably wish you still had it. Isn't that always the way? LOL
