Advanced Coverstitch Technique Class Series



We are sorry, but this class is in it's third session - no new students.

Advanced Serger & Coverstitch Technique Series

Multi-Month Specialty Techniques Project

Join Sewing Machine Warehouse for an advanced technique class series featuring your serger/coverstitch machine.

This is a single project with several components. We will be doing this project over 4 to 6 months. The shorter length classes will enable us to focus on each month's technique. At the end we will have a tote bag loaded with specialty techniques.

This in-depth, hands-on series is perfect for sewists who want to explore the full capabilities of their serger and/or coverstitch machine while working on a structured, skill-building project.

Techniques You Will Learn

Techniques learned:

  • Create decorative coverstitch
  • Create ribbon attachment
  • Create pin tucks
  • Create puffing
  • Create a quilt square
  • Use overlock to create ladder stitch

Each month focuses on one or more of these techniques, giving you time to practice and understand how to apply them to future garments, home décor, and specialty projects.

Accessories Used in Class

Accessories used in class:

  • Standard presser foot
  • Pin Tuck Foot and accessory
  • Cover/Chain foot
  • Cording foot

You’ll learn when and why to use each accessory, and how these tools can dramatically expand what your serger or coverstitch machine can do.

Class Fee

Cost: $60 per class (includes all fabric supplies) – you will supply the thread.
