I WISH YOU WOULD HAVE RESEWED BOTH MATERIALS AND STATE WHAT DIFFERENTIAL SETTING DID A SMOOTH JOB. THANKS
That was great! I’m new to serging and was baffled until this video came along. Thanks.
This was something new to me. Thanks for the tips!
Would have been helpful to show each fabric using the “correct” setting. 🙂
What is differeential? Where I canfind?
Very clear and helpful.
Very interesting and informative, thanks Aurora
why is she calling the feed dog a foot? She should be using the correct terminology. Also, she says she is setting the differential feed to 7 instead of .7
Hi Norma, Thank you for pointing this out. The wrong word was used by accident. We apologize for the error. We’ll work hard to make sure we have correct terms in the future. Have a nice day!
Didn’t know my serger even had a differential. Thank you so much! I think I’ll go play with this option and learn to use it to my advantage.
