The Ultimate Serger Answer Guide - A must have July 18, 2005
14 out of 14 found this review helpful
I received this book from Amazon only 3 days ago but it has proved invaluable. I recently purchased a serger for the first time and initially found it quite a challenge. However, the manual has helped somewhat but after reading this book (I bought two others as well including Serger Secrets which everyone recommends) I would highly recommend this Guide. It covers all the commonly found problems and questions that people ask about sergers. It also has very good diagrams including line drawings which are very helpful. It's very easy to read, to understand and to put ideas into action. The book also covers some of the main sergers and comments on how to manage individual problems on them.
All in all I couldn't recommend this book highly enough. After being concerned about making anything I sat down the next day and made a fleece pullover within about two hours. This book gave me the confidence to do that.
 No Longer Feeling Overwhelmed May 12, 2005

I was a little overwhelmed by my Singer serger but this book helps. It has so much good information that I can understand and I am not a professional in the sewing world, this is my hobby. I am now brave enough to try new threads and different serging techniques that I wouldn't have with only the information given in the manual that came with my machine. I also understand better the way a differential works, too. The books says the truth, it does "demystify" sergers. Now I feel that if I run into a problem I can find the answer in this book, fix it and get on with my project. Thanks for writing a good book on sergers!

this book was a major disappointment. there are very few pages, ugly illustrations, and there should have been more information, such as threading. it is basically a trouble shooting guide for tensions, and it looks very good for that, but "ultimate" it isn't.
