Wow, that looks like fun. Always wondered why a serger wouldn't work for quilting strips, so much faster than regular sewing machine

That looks neat. I just requested the book from my library. I have a serger that I rarely use.

I have serged a few quilts and wall hanging and they come out great. But, you can't hand quilt them as the seam are a little to thick. It works O. K. for machine quilting. Margaret Tully has a serge university class where she teaches quilting on the serger. She is great. The log cabin really goes fast.
