So, I am hoping you will help me out, for the times when my husband asks, "Now what did you need that for", and post ideas for how you got your monies worth. Pictures would be awesome!

I use my serger for a lot of things. I serge around my quilts, that way the binding goes on better. When I sew garments, I serge the seams that I use to zig zag on the sewing machine. I serge raveled towels/wash clothes. I serge anything that I think will ravel easily. I don't know what I did when I didn't have one. Love my serger...Mary

Thanks for the help.
