  • Great Book on Serging
I chose this book because it seemed to be the newest out of all the books on serging and I'd been told that sergers have changed so much in the last ten years that the older books are obsolete. I'm not sure if that's true or not, but I found the book to be both comprehensive and educational. One of my sewing students wants me to teach him to use a serger, so I got this book hoping it would serve as a guide for us both. I learned a great deal and my student was pleased to get the book once I'd finished reading it. The book covers the basics of how to thread the machine, adjust the tension, how to use the different stitches, etc. At the end, it has several easy projects you can make using your serger. I'd give it five stars and recommend it to anyone who's just starting out with a serger. ... show more

  • Basic Serging
The title says it all and this is a very good book to get the beginner up and going. The pictures are absolutely terrific. The photos of the stitches is essential to a beginner. A lot of thought must have gone into what to put in this book. This is now in my sewing room, right next to the sewing desk for easy reach! ... show more

  • Bought to help me with my new serger
I've been sewing for over 30 years and just this Christmas I bought my first serger, well of course I needed some help learning to use it. This book has great pictures, easy to read instructions and easy to follow drawings. Lovely home deco projects in back. I would recommend this book to beginners, intermediate and advanced sewers. ... show more

  • Good for project ideas but just OK for beginner sergers
I bought this and another book along with my new serger. I was new to serging and a bit intimidated. I read both of my books and the manual before touching the machine. Quite honestly, I didn't find this book very helpful in learning my machine and in getting up and running on it, but I really like some of the projects in it. If you want a good book to help you with your first serger get: The Complete Serger Handbook by Chris James. Very helpful. ... show more

  • Better than expected
The book was labeled as condition acceptable. When it arrived it was like new. I was very pleased. It didn't look like it had ever been opened. It was shipped out rather quickly and arrived in the time frame. It arrived in my state rather quickly, but took a long time getting to my town. Not the fault of the seller. ... show more

  • No Bored Grandma Crafts Inside
I haven't even been through it all but I love it already! So many great projects for me to try...I cannot wait! Easy to follow and informative. Up to date projects, not those bored grandma crafts you see in some books that are just hideous. I have been enjoying reading and learning.
