For your sewing work, you know the sewing machine, but there are also other tools that allow you to make almost professional confections. This is the case of the serger which will save you time and quality. If its cost is high at purchase, count between 450 and 1,300 euros, the benefit is quickly felt.

For all your sewing projects, the serger :- Cut the fabric
- Overcasting with chain stitch avoiding knots like a thin hem
