I've taught myself to quilt using the internet and advice from friends, but no lessons.

I use my serger all the time and never had a lesson. There are great books to have as a reference. It was intimidating at first but now it's one of my best friends :lol:

The best and most user friendly universal serge instruction book I've found is Sewing with Sergers - The Complete Handbook for Overlock Sewing by Gail Brown and Pati Palmer.

They do still make the VHS recorders. I have a Panasonic VHS/DVD Player/Recorder. Bought it at Sears about a year ago. I just recently bought a Husqvarna Viking Huskylock 936 and it has a VHS tape with it, and I copied it to a DVD so I could play it in my sewing room on my computer when needed.
