    I recently purchased a Brother 1634DX serger and needed help with learning this macine as I have 0 experience with a serger. Brian instructed me for over an hour and asked me to thread the seger by myself at the end of the class. I was in disbelieve as at the beginning of the class I was completely intimidated to even touch the machine but at the end of the class I was able to thread it and try out various settings. I still need to practice but now I know that the serger will not be just sitting in a box.
    He also sent me home with a book 'Serger Secrets' to read and review . It explains the capabilities of a serger from beginner to expert level projects. He also suggested a place to go to purchase reasonably priced serger threads. I am so thankful for a class with him.
