Serger Sewing Machine
How Sergers Differ From Classic Sewing Machines


A serger sewing machine proves to be an excellent tool for those who are into different kinds of sewing projects.

When you are going to sew something, you cannot expect the hems, seams, and lines to be clean. If you look at them closely, you will realize that they will have raw edges and some fibers that you need to remove.

However, you cannot simply use any machine. Otherwise, you may cause damage to the items and that can only worsen the condition.

Difference between Serger Sewing Machines from Straight-stitch One

Perhaps you are going to ask, "Why can't I use my straight-stitch sewing machine for this one?"

A serger sewing machine, also known as overlock machine, makes use of loopers so you will be able to create a stitch. What's more, there is also a pair of knives included in the serger. It works like a scissor, cutting the frays of your dress or whatever sewing project you have while you are sewing.

You can do everything manually, but if you are doing a lot of multiple sewing projects, you definitely need all the time that you can possibly have. Sergers can help you cut down the time you spend finishing each garment, giving them a more polished look within minutes.


The Janome 644D Sewing Serger Review

A good example is the Janome 644D MyLock Serger. It is equipped with electronic control, so it will be very easy for you to make some adjustments on some of its parts.

To create an overlock stitch, the machine also contains 2 needles and between 2 and 4 threads. The Janome 644D has the capability to handle different kinds of fabrics, and to perform various special effects in your garments.

The Janome serger sewing machine also makes it very convenient for you to change the ratio of the differential feed.
