Tutorial: Flatlocking on your serger

November 21, by Anne Weaver. 1 Comment

Tutorial: Flatlocking on your sergerWhen I first brought home my serger, I thought I could only sew on the edges of fabric.  Every seam I sewed would have the thread wrapped seam allowance.  I later realized that I could use flatlocking to create a flat seam.  When you flatlock, you’re able to pull the seam open just a bit so the seam allowances lie flat.  Abby from Things for Boys shares a tutorial over at Go To Sew showing how you can make a flatlock seam on your serger.  Go to her post to read how to do it.
