I'd love to see a tutorial for that process. Sounds wonderful.

I sew binding on front of quilts with serger, leaves a beautiful finished edge that makes turning the binding to the back smooth and easy to stitch.

Oh my a whole bunch. A zipper pencil or cosmetic cases, messenger bags, serge the edges of the quilt for stability then bind. Since I hate hand binding I use my binding attachment that I have for my serger, table runners.. You get the idea. You can use it for just about anything. There are some thing that only a sewing machine can do. That's why I have both :)

I used to do this, too. I didn't even unfold the fabric, just serged the ends as it came off the bolt. Then washed it and folded it for use. Much easier on my dryer. Here lately I've been waiting to was my fabric right before I use it, just because I have too much, so haven't gotten ahead on washing and sorting. I also use it on pillow cases to sew the inside seams. Much quicker than french seaming, and they dry in the dryer a lot quicker without all the bulk.

Is this the book? The review said she was able to get a pdf copy from the author for a small fee.

Elenor Burns had a show segment on quilting/piecing with a serger, looked easy, but never tried with mine. I used mine recently to sew chenille blocks together for a Linus Quilt, turned out nice and snuggly.

Ohhhhhh so you got the GREAT serger type...not the $99 special. Well done RedThread on both the baby items and acquiring the GREAT serger.

I use my serger for making turtle neck cotton knit shirts and bathing suits for my granddaughter. I have also done heirloom sewing (baby clothes, nightgowns, etc.)on my serger. I use the serger for finishing seams and making rolled hems. In quilting, my only use of the serger is to serge the cut edges of fabric before I wash it. I love my serger and know you will really enjoy using yours. Congratulations!

This is wild one! You know there are tea bags. There are coffee bags also. I used to buy them so I could have a decent cup of coffee at work. I'm a coffee snob, so I started making my own coffee bags. The ones you buy have about 1/4 instant coffee in them. So I mix up my favorite blend (french roast or express blend, i.e. DARK) and add 1/4 instant. Then I buy the coffee filters that are shaped like a cone with a blunt end at the cone. I cut them down the center. I chain finish this cut, which leaves the top open. I fill the bag with my special blend, and serge across the top. Does this make me a red neck? I hope so!

Look up Baby lock serger videos there are several showing how to make lace etc with the serger
