Serger Library – Tips and Tricks
Specialty Stitches
• Thread the serger for a 3-thread Overlock stitch using the Left Needle.
Use the Jeans Stitch  in the Upper Looper.
• Turn the Stitch Selection Dial to “D” on the Stitch Display Panel.
• Adjust the Stitch Length to 3. (You can shorten the Stitch Length slightly to fill in the
stitch as you serge.)
• Attach the Right Hand Seam Guide and adjust it so that the guide is halfway between
the Left Needle and the right edge of the Stitch Finger.
• Fold the fabric in half, wrong sides together, to 2” X 6”.
• Place the fold under the Presser Foot and against the Right Hand Seam Guide.
• Slowly serge the fabric. The Looper threads will extend beyond the fabric on the
right side of the fold.
• Pull the fabric flat. If it does not lay flat, move the Right Hand Seam Guide towards
the Left Needle and try again.
• Press, trim and mount the sample.
