I take this method one step further and thread fusible thread through the lower looper and when I press that first 3/8″ up it sticks – sometimes I’ll also change the differential to a slight gather so when the serge is finished it’s pulled the fabric a bit so it’s slightly tighter than the garment I’ll be “fusing” it up to :) Try it! I think you’ll love it even more.
What in the world? I’ve never heard of fusible thread! I will have to check it out.
Great tutorial. I inherited an older Singer sewing machine and I might try something a little more challenging than pillow cases. Thank you Meredith.
