I used it to make Kay Wood's 6-hr quilt. Wouldn't be without it. Mine has the windows that tell you how to set the machine up--I had a Riccar years ago and hated always testing the stitches--even when I wrote them down they would be different for different types of fabric, thread, etc.
Slightly off subject, but I too am trying to make fleece socks with my serger, a Baby Lock, BL4-728D but I can't find my manual and have forgotten how to drive the thing. Does anyone have any suggestions how to find a free manual online or? I've checked on the Baby Lock website and they don't show it anymore, probably because it's pretty old I think. Not sure how old. Any suggestions would be helpful and thanks for your ideas.
