I think my serger gets more use than my sewing machines. It is a fantastic, versatile machine to sew fancy stitches, piping, putting on bias binding, making belt loops, pin tucks, chain stitching on fine fabric, flat lock seams to thread ribbon through, cording, and just finishing the edges off. I would never part with it. There are patterns on the Kaye Woods and Nancy Zieman sites that use sergers for quilting. Nancy Zieman makes a fancy prairie point using the serger in one of her quilt demos.
