Should I buy a serger? Of course!

I've been asked this many times by many people, and I've answered this many times.
If you plan to enjoy sewing for a long time to come, I'm confident in this answer.
But you have many worries and questions, and you can't make the decision to buy one...
It's not cheap, so you don't want to make a mistake! I understand that very well.
That's why in this book, I explain everything from the most basic questions you might have to ask now.
Just like you, we had a lot of things we didn't know.
I hope that after reading this, you will learn about sergers and be convinced before purchasing one.
And I'd be happy to hear you say, "I should have bought one sooner!"
