They can make secure, durable stitches and do them extremely quickly. You can finish your hand-made garments and projects with professional results; it could even lead to a successful home business. There are so many positive aspects to using a serger if you can just get past that one hurdle of learning to thread and use your serger!

Katrina Walker

Katrina Walker’s personal serging adventure began in junior high when her mother bought a serger. Intrigued by the possibilities, Katrina quickly learned how to use the serger to enhance her wardrobe with many pairs of stirrup pants (it was the 80s, after all!) and other fashion items. She bought her own serger as soon as she could afford one. She considers sergers to be essential tools in her professional sewing studio.
