Hi, I'm usually on the long hair support board and I hope I am on the correct board to ask this question. Does anyone here sew and use a serger? I'm looking for recommendations for buying my first serger. I can't really afford a super expensive one right now, but recommendations of sergers in any price range would really help me out! I've looked at a Singer serger at Wal-Mart for under $200. It has differential feed, 4 thread capacity, rolled hem and that is all I can remember right now. If anyone can tell me if this would be a bad or good one to buy, or suggest other brands/models you like, it would be very much appreciated!!! TIA, strawberryfine ------------- strawberryfine 2aFii 12/25.5"/terminal length after reaching "small of my back length" |

I wanna learn to sew, because I wanna cosplay more (especially if I manage to lose weight), and have had bad experience with asking people here to help with costumes -_-; . If I knew how to make my own, I'm sure I'd have more (and better-made) ones to play in! ------------- More awesome than a manatee! |

Hi! Singer is a real good brand! Mom said it was an excellent price also! Do you sew a lot or a little? That would be fun to make stuf for your house or like Kureneko said to make costumes. Have fun! Debbie ------------- There is more to life than hair...Come on---Go get a life!!!!!!! |

Hi, my sister and me have just got a new sewing machine. It was in the sale and only cost £80 and it should have been £160, because its got lots of dials on it for different stitches and stuff. I am going to start making clothes for myself, because going out and getting the material and pattern is good fun. I need some new clothes because I've just had extensions put in by David a friend of mine, and they look great, and I am very happy with them. speak to you soon........bye........ ------------- hello from lucky star - have a nice day!!! |

Hello, Sergers are very expensive in the UK but when I went to the USA some years ago visiting friends in Orlando I saw that sewing machines, material, thread and stuff was a lot lot cheaper than in England. I found my suitcase weighed a ton when I was coming home because I'd bought so much material!!! Hope you get your Serger!!!!! Love ------------- AngelEyes supports SIGHTSAVERS CHARITY |
