Learn all about the serger! You’ll get to know how a serger works and when to use it, practice techniques on woven and knit fabric, learn how to thread the machine, and make your first project! Students will make a drawstring bag during class using only the serger.

If you're bringing your own machine...
It must be in working order! If you do not know if it works, please take it to a sewing repair shop (Montavilla Sewing Center for example) and have it looked over. There will not be enough time during class for instructors to diagnose and fix machines that are not ready to go. If your machine is not in working order, you may be moved to a studio machine at the instructor's discretion
Please arrive 10 minutes early so instructors can look over the machine and familiarize themselves with it
Bring the owners manual! Especially for older machines. If you don't have it, please do a search for it online and ideally print out the sections relating to setting it up.
