    Have fun. I am also learning, and having a great time while I learn. So many ideas, so little time.

    Glad you are happy with the new serger. I did a lot of mending when I first had mine, old bath towels got turned into washcloths, old flannel shirts became dustcloths, .If it had a raw edge, it got serged.LOL

    I don't think I could sew without my serger. I don't use it real often, but when I do I NEED it and couldn't live without it. Every sewer should have one!

    Aren't they fun? I used to wonder who really needs a serger. :lol:

    Then I actually used one :roll: and even though it was a very old model that only did edge finishing, I was hooked.

    Now, I have a modern Brother - 1034D - I LOVE it and it would be immediately replaced if something went wrong with it. I do a lot more quilting than garment construction, lately, but I still use the serger a lot more than I ever imagined I would.
