    • Great addition to anyone's sewing library.

Great book for us beginners. Lots of pictures to show you correctly what you are doing. Glad to have all the helpful information right by my side as I learn.

    • Excellent book!
Format: Paperback
This book is exactly what I needed! I inherited a serger when a family member passed away. I had never used one and did not have any manuals for the machine. I’ve had so many questions about how to use the serger and ALL of them were answered by this book. This book is great for someone like me who is just beginning to use a serger or for someone who wants to learn more about their machine’s capabilities. It also comes with several detailed projects to enhance your skills. All around awesome book. ... show more

Thought that I would learn the server machine that I received as a gift from my ex, but no need for it in quilting

    • Informative book
Format: Paperback
So far I’ve only flipped through the book but I can see it’s going to be very helpful for me. I’m a very visual learner and the instruction booklet that came with my serger was not enough for me to learn from. I do better with color photos and detailed instructions

    • Good to read, but get from the library
Format: Paperback
This isn’t a “bad” book, but it really concentrates on the projects it contains. The projects really aren’t to my liking. This is better to get from the library rather than buy as a reference.

    • I love using my serger now!
Format: Paperback
This book is easy to read with great instructions. I bought my Serger a couple of years ago and the instructions were so confusing. So i decided to wait until i got to watch a couple of YouTube videos. I cant remember what i was looking for on Amazon but came across several Serger books. This book had great reviews so i purchased it and now its my personal reference book. Thanks!! ... show more
