Serger Question

In article , Gerry Leath of OWDS Inc. uttered

Get some of those long pointy tweezers with the angled ends, and a needle inserter dooberry (if it doesn't come with them). A bit catcher is handy too. You might also find a paintbrush handy for de-fluffing the innards.

Anything by Palmer & Pletsch:

Serger Basics 1 (1992)

Sewing With Sergers-Basics II (1992) Creative Serging (1992) Creative Serging 2 (1992)

Some of those dental floss threaders for folks with partials are great for threading loopers. A few nets for the thread - I understand florists get them on certain flowers and just throw them out! So if you know a florist......

As Beverly stated, any book by Palmer & Pletsch, and the DVDs that accompany them are excellent, too. The book I call my "bible" of serging and is always next to my serger is: The Complete Serger Handbook by Chris James, published by Sterling Publishing Co. of New York. The copy I own was copyrighted 1997(I bought it in 1998). My younger DD bought it from Amazon.com earlier this year after I gave her my "little" serger, a Pfaff Hobbylock 776. Emily

Pop over to my web site and have a look at my Book List. I don't sell - these are just reviews.
