Re: Serger Stitches
Absolutely 4 colors to test. I leave my machine threaded with different colors. I only change for topstitching when it needs to match. ‘Only’ with different colors can you easily tell what part of

Re: Serger Stitches
Oh June, I don’t know if I mentioned - “Good for you” in trying to get the most out of your serger. You are a very good woman.

Re: Serger Stitches
Hey June, Good Morning,
Have you tried using a different colour in each thread space - that’s 4 colours. Then do a test sample on scrap organza. Stretch the fabric out when you’ve stitched it

Re: Top thread
I would tighten the top tension, the bobbin thread a higher tension than than the top thread and is pulling it down, tighten the top tension a bit and it will equal it out.
