The Overlocker Technique manual - Review

For fast and professional edging, hemming, seaming, and decorative stitching, you simply can't beat a serging machine.
This all-skill-level book is the perfect guide to make sure you get the most out of your new machine (or out of that old serger that you've never got the hang of!)
Photographs and step-by-step instructions guide you through the essential techniques, showing you how to set up your machine, how to adjust the settings to get the best results on a range of different fabrics, and how to edge your fabrics quickly with perfect results.
The troubleshooting section provides tips and quick fixes for skipped stitches, snapped threads, and uneven stitching.
Also includes a buyer's guide to different sergers, providing you with advice on finding the right machine for you.

OUR REVIEW:
perfect!

• The book is a very good basic resource.
• Lots of practical material and has an incredible number of detailed photographs that go with the instruction.
• Good images to illustrate instructions.
• Colorful photography, really nice.
• No drawings or schedules: just great and clear pictures.
• Very inspiring, makes you want to lock forever!

a bit less interesting

• For a beginner: don't be overwhelmed. Just start locking !
• A lot cheaper compared to a real life workshop but sometimes you miss a voice to guide you through this book.

Notes:
We love all the beautiful examples. But it all looks a bit like a mamma or grandmother is sewing (locking) for her baby. Next edition: please provides us with more pictures of modern clothes or beautiful couture.
