Sewing pattern: Easy trick for sewing clear elastic in your serger

Sewing tutorial: Easy trick for sewing clear elastic in your serger

Clear elastic is often used when sewing knits when you need to keep your fabric from stretching.  The thin elastic stabilizes the seam while still allowing it to stretch.  Emily from Life Sew Savory shows how you can sew clear elastic into your seams using a serger, including a handy little tip that will make it easy to keep the elastic from slipping and stretching as you sew.
