have fun! Threading the serger is duanting at first but you get used to it. Singer has a good serger book with pictures of the tension problems so you can compare and figure out what tension to change. this is the hardest part of using a serger - conquering the tension. (I mean on the serger - your own is another story!)
Thanks lots! Yeah I have the threading down pat. But I have not worked a lot on sewing with the serger yet so thanks for the heads up on the tension. At least when I have problems I will know it is normal. I really like the edges on the table stuff you did, so I am going to give it a try. Again Thanks!
