Product Description
An easy, get-started guide to working with your serger-to get quick, professional-looking results with all types of fabrics.

Easy SINGER Style Quick and Easy Sewing with Your Serger teaches readers all about the serger and presents 15 projects that help them develop the skills and techniques they need for both decorative and functional serging. The projects include fashion makeovers, fashion accessories, home accents, and specialty gift items. The projects make the most of the serger's special functions and capabilities.

As with the other books in the series, the early chapters present all the information the reader needs to get started-a discussion of all the features and components of a serger, the many styles available, and how to thread and stitch perfectly. Several projects showcase the varied techniques, including a vintage sweater makeover, ready-to-wear jacket trim, and window curtains. Readers gradually build skills as they apply what they learn.

This book features the step-by-step approach of the other books in the series, in keeping with SINGER's reputation for reliable, practical instruction.

2 out of 5 stars ugh   June 19, 2008

This book is just okay -- i expected new and up-to-date projects but it is very similar to books I purchased years ago. The fabric weren't even very inspiring. disappointing, there are much better choices out there.


5 out of 5 stars Great place to start   June 4, 2008

I bought this book to go with my new serger. At first, I was only finishing seams--which was great--but this book has been a big help in getting me to understand everything else the serger can do. I've tried a couple of these special techniques and now am experimenting with ideas on my own. Great extra to have along with the machine manual.


1 out of 5 stars Really disappointing   April 29, 2008

I should never have bought this book. I didn't check out the projects and there is nothing in it that I would make. I suppose every serging book has good suggestions about using that pesky machine, but so far I haven't found them. Some of the projects require capabilities that my machine doesn't have, like a cover stitch, so I'm not really even getting as many projects as the book's title says.

For me it was a waste of money.
