I am thinking about getting a serger. I like to piece tops but prefer to sleep under down (usually give away my quilts or save them for who knows what!), so have made two duvet covers and borrowed a friend's serger to finish the seams AFTER sewing them on my old Elna SU.
I understand some sergers seam and serge at the same time. Sounds like that would be a great time saver!!!
So what do you think and what serger do you recommend?
Thanks for your input.

I was in a serger class several years ago where there were many different kind of sergers being used. Everyone who didn't have a Babylock was wishing that they did...hope this helps with your decision.

LOVE< LOVE< LOVE my Babylock Imagine.
Have had 2 prior to this-couldn't thread them-wanted to throw them out the window--now I have this one and it is SO easy to thread and use!

I have an industrial that didn't cost all that much more than a home serger, although I know that everyone does not have room for an industrial machine. That said, it is the best serger I have ever used. It can sew anything. I have a Viking that I despise. Anything but a Viking.

BABYLOCK It is the easiest one to use. The loopers are threaded by a puff of air. Love mine.
