I love mine for quilts. I've used the serger to do those fast strip quilts (super fast!!!) but my favorite serger quilts are log cabins. Instead of cutting all those short pieces, I cut only the center square, then lay all the squares on one long strip and serge. I then cross-cut the sewn pieces, and lay them on the next long strip and then cross-cut. Repeat til the blocks are finished. You will need 2 or even 3 strips of one color as the size of each block grows. Very fast. The best part is that the seams are finished and lie flat...very little pressing needed. As a previous post said, it does use more thread, but my time is more valuable to me than the thread. Have fun with your new serger!
