    Thank you for this super helpful video. I need to practice using less clips - I’m a little obsessed with using multiple pins or clips! 😂

    Me and my serger are not friends. I just had it in for service, still not great friends, but better. I had no idea about this, thank you!

      So happy this helps... sometimes it's about learning the "personality" of your serger... I think each one has it's own little quirks. Once you figure those out... it's on to being great friends!!

    I volunteer making pillowcases for Ryon Smiles I have 4 air threading sergers . All Baby lock ,
    Ovation, Evolution, & 2 Evolve sergers.
    I teach volunteers how to use the sergers we make around 500 pillowcases each month
    We only use the wonder clips and have them clipped to make the pillowcases.
    Bye the way you sound much better than artificial intelligence just saying.. enjoy your holidays.

      That is amazing that you do that!! ... and OMG, I finally figured out my AI problem. Now that I figured out what I was doing wrong, I'm so excited about the new AI feature rolling out here on YT.... It's suppose to dub my English Videos into other languages so people around the world can understand them.... I had my video language setting ...not set correctly (But it also wasn't noticeable until YT added the dubbing feature to my channel ... Which I'm also excited about because I was struggling with requests for my videos to be translated into other languages! Thanks for watching

    A common cause of the upper fabric layer sliding relative to the lower is too much presser foot pressure. Ideally the presser foot pressure should be dialed up to a setting just sufficient to control the fabric and advance it reliably through the machine, but no more than that. An easy test is to place the project in the machine and lower the presser foot, then give it a tug. If a gentle tug moves the fabric, dial it up a little; if a firm tug doesn't move the fabric, dial it back down a little.
    Also pro tip: back off the presser foot pressure just as you're approaching a bulky seam and the presser foot will glide over it like magic. And of course dial it back up once you're on the other side.

      Thanks for the tips! Presser foot presser is something I almost never adjust... It's set at the middle setting and I find that I only have to adjust it for super lightweight or super heavy fabrics... But every serger works differently and I love it that there are so many ways to get the job done right! Thanks for watching too
