Sew a Stitch - Serger Club

Serger Club

Class Fee: $5 if you purchased your Husqvarna Viking or Janome Serger from Sew a Stitch.

$10 if machine is purchased elsewhere.

Date: First Tuesday each month

Time: 6:30-8:30pm

Instructor: Alecia Gentry

Open to owners that purchased either a Viking or Janome Serger from Sew a Stitch.

If you've been intimidated by your serger, it's time to conquer!

Sergers can; save you valuable time, perform many functions and, produce great looks with various decorative threads, ribbons, and laces, etc. Sergers are not just for finishing seams!. There are so many exciting options, funtions, and stitches, etc. to keep this club going for years (especially Coverlock owners) without repeating a lesson or a project!

Husqvarna Viking and Janome Serger owners will learn new and interesting ways to be creative with their serger. Those who attend will discover useful tips, inspiration, and education to make professional looking and professionally finished items that are fast, fun, and easy. Serger Club projects will feature a specific stitch funtion or combination of functions. Many of the projects will include using decorative threads, adding ribbons, lace, etc. Click on a link below to get more details on specific projects.

There is a lot of preparation that goes into creating fun, unique, and educational classes and make the learning process as easy as possible for everyone.

We as teachers donate our own time to share our learning experiences and knowledge with you because we love it.

For us to continue providing and sharing fun new learning experiences, there will be no "Make-Up" sessions for previous projects.

If there is a lesson you are interested in, please make an attempt to attend that session.

Thank you for your understanding.
