I'm very glad, that you discovered the need for videos, such as yours. Some say: "Overlock all the edges." Yeah, right, how? I don't even know my machine!, but off you go. I looked everywhere for the stitch width button, and checked my manual, but nothing. So, you are my manual, and you even explain what my manual is trying to tell me, and what it forgot to tell me. We need you in our overlocking lives. I got a Juki MO-114D. I could only afford a 104D, but because the owner told me he had 104D in stock, and found out afterwards he only had 114D, he send me that instead, for the same price. 1.000 Danish Kroner less. Jubi for my Juki. And it arrived on the next day, April Fools' Day. What do you say? Now, don't ask me how many things I have created, because I knew I need to learn to know my machine, stop fearing my overlocker, and there is just no such videos o You start off very catching, every time. You go right to the point, and give visuals, and comparisons that sticks in my head. You're just the teacher for me! Thanks so much. I know it is hard word, but believe me, I appreciate what you do. I subscribed, of course.
Thank you for a helpful video. Just watching this intro video provided much information and made my serger less intimidating. Looking forward to learning more!
I’m so thrilled to hear this. Plus it’s a good video to come back to on days our brains arrest full power! Next up is threading :) thanks so much for being here 🥰
Ooooo, *excellent* intro to the parts of a serger! I've taken several serger online (and in-person) classes, but none explained all of these details as well as you did here. I have a Juki overlock serger (came with needles, a screwdriver, allen key, tweezers [though I like the points on yours better than the shape of mine], a brush/needle inserter, and looper threader) with air threading. I also have an HV Amber Air Coverlock machine, also with air threading; it came with a needle threader, tweezers, allen key, screwdriver, a brush, and a stylus. The Juki has a built-in needle threader which I really like, works well most of the time. Both have differential feed, and now I am curious to look at the movement of the feed dogs like you showed in the video. Good explanation of the stitch finger too, need to look at that more closely on my machines. Thanks for the explanation of the stitch width - that makes a lot more sense now.
This has been soooo helpful. I bought a Bernina 890 and my dealer has retired so I never got the usual classes. It’s been sitting a long time but I’m ready to make friends with it….terrified for some reason. Any advice on oiling? You’re a wonderful teacher and it feels great to be your student. Hopeful….
Thank you you taught me things about serger's that I never knew even though I have used a serger for many many years. Also, you look wonderful!!! You do an excellent job with each of your videos, I am really proud of you. Take care and have a good day.
I have to take my serger out from under the my desk to see if it has trash bin and look for my extra pressure feet that came with my machine i been reorganize my sewing room past few months so i need search for my serger thank you
Not really serger-related, but what is that cool light wa-a-y in the back of your sewing table? My serger has a good, built-in task light, but I’m curious about that long, slender lamp.

Thank you for your serger tutorials. I too have the same serger you own but will be using it more after these valuable tutorials.
@lucydaniel3168 you’re welcome! They live here on TH-cam forever so save and revisit any time :)

Awesome! Glad it helped. More videos to come :)

You totally made my day with this comment
Amen.
Great video! My baby lock serger does not have a trim bin, I love that idea for a project.
I think it could be fun! Until these two sergers I have I never had one and so always made my own. Coming soon :)
Thank you for these videos i can master my serger
You’re so welcome! So happy you’re here!
A trim bin would be fun!
:) I was thinking it might be too!
Trim bin would be awesome my baby lock acclaim did not come with one.
Awesome!! So glad that sounds good :)
I have to take my serger out from under the my desk to see if it has trash bin and look for my extra pressure feet that came with my machine i been reorganize my sewing room past few months so i need search for my serger thank you
Yes! Pull her out from under the desk!! Let me know :) you’ll have to let me know what serger you’ve got too!

Good question. This is the Daylight slimline lamp. I’ve had it for YEARS! You can check it out here amzn.to/4h6AjJA
