I am kind of partial to my babylock, it has air threading so it is fast to thread and change colors etc, but there are all sorts of different ones out there to choose from, I don't know what I would do with out a serger, I do a fair bit of sewing still, mostly costumes and formal wear, there is the odd time that I do other things, hemming is made easy with it, serge the edge and fold up and sew.

What kind do you have?

A Babylock Imagine.

Could you sew cotton fabric 4 layers for a summer quilt?

You could, the only thing being with the thinner layer the seam bulk would show more.

This quilt board is the best for answering all questions. Thanks so much

So here is what I ended up with, for now I just serged the edges, I may go back and bind it but for now it will serve the purpose that I would like it for.

Your work is very pretty and so interesting.
I recently purchased a Viking Serger and want to do more with it. I'm working on my first quilt so I might try the serging when it's all done just to see! Grand kids would love a denim quilt and this would be an easy way....I think.

Then when I was working away I had the idea that I wanted to try, doing a two sided log cabin, now you can go as big as you want or do small projects like trivets etc out of them, so this is what I just did.

I just used scraps sitting on the table so the colors are in no order, of course you can do the traditional or just go for what comes to hand.

For a summer quilt i would play around with layers to see what is the best, Maybe cotton on the outside and put a layer of flannelette in the center.
