Getting to Know YOUR Serger/Overlock Machine
Melissa, our instructor at Los Angeles City College (LACC) for this Serger Basics class, covered the basics to get started with a Serger machine. She explained the principle and steps to thread a Serger machine , and maintenance. She explained how a Serger machine is different from a sewing machine. She used a Husqvarna Viking Serger machine and if you're going to participate in this class using a different brand, then I suggest to at least know the steps on how to thread your Serger machine, since there are subtle differences on threading a brand of Serger machine from another. For example, I used a Brother 1034D machine for the class, and the procedure to thread the lower looper on my machine is different from that of her Viking serger machine. It also helps to use different color thread cone for each thread to help you with pinpointing/troubleshoot tensions on your serger stitches. She showed steps on how to troubleshoot common issues with a four thread Serger stitch and how to adjust tensions to remedy it. She showed how to adjust Differential feed to sew stretch fabric. Now I'm ready to take on more advanced Serger courses both online and in-person. -

Introduction to Machine Sewing
Matthew is a great teacher - knowledgeable about different sewing machines, very patient and excellent at communicating the “how” and “why” for each step. At the end of the lesson we had made our own very cool tote bags. We actually brought my (teen) daughter’s machine that had been sitting unused on the shelf, and he taught her the lesson on her own machine. She is looking forward to returning regularly to Atomic to work on more projects. -
