Ready to finally make friends with your serger? In this fun, hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to thread it without tears, adjust tension like a pro, and understand the magic behind 3-thread vs. 4-thread stitching. We'll cover basic maintenance, safety tips, and experiment with a variety of finishes—rolled hems, flatlock seams, and more!
Bring:
• Your serger (working condition)
• 4 colours of serger thread
• Serger tweezers
• An old T-shirt to cut up
• A phone or camera to capture your progress
Leave empowered, inspired, and fully in control of your serger. No more fear—just fun, function, and fabulous finishes!
