I like Maxi-Lock for my serger. I just took a class making a pillow entirely on the serger with pintucks, ruching, ladder type stitch to run ribbon through, zipper insertion and cording on the pillow and used the Maxi-Lock and also just Isacord 40 wt embroidery to get the fancy look for pintucks and stitches for ribbon. They worked great together.
