Sergers & Overlocks

 

 

SERGERS & OVERLOCKS


Serger and overlock are interchangable terms.  Sergers will perform three tasks at one time.  They will join your material, overcast the edge, and trim off the excess.  Sergers make your sewing faster and easier.  They won't replace your sewing machine, but are a good addition to it.  Think of your sewing machine as an oven and your serger as a microwave.  The microwave is fast, but won't replace your oven.



 What Can A Serger Do?

 

 ****************************************************


THERE IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE IN SERGER BRANDS!

Below are just a few examples of why some sergers can be MUCH easier to use than others.  Baby Lock sergers have 14 patents and are the easiest sergers to use. 



 Baby Lock's Jet Air Threading

The Baby Lock serger threads with the push of a lever!  Why fight your serger and try to thread it with a tweezer?  Just one push and WHOOSH, it's threaded!  This patented feature is a Baby Lock EXCLUSIVE.  To view a video on the Baby Lock serger, click here, then click "Watch Video".

Baby Lock's Built -In Needle Threader
 

Baby Lock sergers even thread the needles for you!  How much easier can you get?  To view a video on the Baby Lock serger, click here, then click "Watch Video".

Baby Lock's Tubular Loopers
 

Baby Lock's tubular loopers make it almost impossible to break them.  You can thread them in any order and the Jet-Air threading makes it a breeze!  This patented feature is a Baby Lock EXCLUSIVE.  To view a video on the Baby Lock serger, click here, then click "Watch Video".

 HERE ARE SOME OF OUR FAVORITE SERGERS

In our opinion, Baby Lock sergers are the easiest and most reliable sergers on the market.  Why?  They have 14 patents which make them radically different than ANY other serger.  Baby Lock sergers thread themselves!  They have NO tensions.  You can thread the threads in ANY order.  It is virtually impossible to throw the machine out of time or break a looper.  They have the stongest cutting mechanism.  Want more?  Stop in and test drive a Baby Lock.  Whoever said sergers are difficult NEVER had a Baby Lock!  If you're looking for a basic serger, test drive the Janome brand sergers.


 Baby Lock Evolve

This is our most versatile and advanced serger.  Experience the next evolution in serging history with the Evolve. Through advanced patents, Baby Lock brings you the first serger to use eight threads at one time. You'll have more stitch options than ever, including the exclusive Wave Stitch. And dont let all of those threads intimidate you - the Evolve includes Jet-Air Threading™, which threads the serger for you with the touch of a lever.  For more information on the Baby Lock Evolve, click here.

Baby Lock Imagine Wave

Our sewers love the Wave feature on this easy-to-use serger.  Imagine what you could create with a stitch unlike any other? Look no further than the Imagine Wave, the innovative serger that includes all of the convenient features of the Imagine, plus the exclusive Wave Stitch. The Imagine Wave also makes threading a breeze with the patented Jet-Air Threading.  For more information on the Baby Lock Imagine Wave, click

Baby Lock Imagine
 

-------------------------------------------

Janome #1110DX
 

-------------------------------------------
This is a rock solid mid level serger.  The Janome 1110DX makes serger sewing easy! Incorporating the differential feed system of two feed dogs, puckered edges on woven fabrics and stretched edges on knits are virtually eliminated. The rolled hem conversion feature eliminates the need to change the needle plate, foot, or tension setting for rolled hemming. Restructured lower looper guides allow easy access. The included threading card and color-coded guides are easy to follow for 2, 3, or 4 thread serging.  For more information on the Janome #1110DX, click

 Janome #204D
 

------------------------------------------
Without question, this is one of the best basic sergers you can find.  The Janome 204D gives you a wide range of serging features in a compact machine. Its sturdy design and precise Janome stitch mechanism ensures beautiful 3/4 thread operation. And the fact that it doesn't take up much space makes it an easy fit for your sewing room.  Included is a handy instructional video.  For more information on the Janome #204D, click here.
