Introduction

Congratulations on the purchase of your new BERNINA serger. The information in this workbook will help

you learn the basics of using your new piece of sewing equipment. Even though it is very different from your

sewing machine, once you learn to incorporate serging techniques into your sewing, you’ll wonder how you

ever got along without it.

Sometimes called the microwave of sewing, your serger will speed your sewing in several ways, letting

you produce more in less time. The speed of the serger is faster than a sewing machine and because it

performs several operations (trimming, seaming, and overcasting) at the same time, you sew faster, and

in the process, produce neater and more professional-looking results.

Because the serger is a specialized piece of equipment, it only “sews” a limited

number of techniques and even though the workings are more complex than a

sewing machine, it doesn’t take long to learn the basics. The stitching exercises

in this workbook use four, three, and two thread stitch formations.

Once you have completed the exercises designated for your BERNINA overlock

machine, attach the sewn samples to the indicated pages and insert the pages

into plastic page protectors and store them in a 3-ring binder. They can then be

used as a reference tool in the future as you use your serger and explore the

creative possibilities it affords you.
