No Overlocker/Serger? ┈➤ 7 Seam Finishes You Can Use That Don't Need One!

Still finishing your seams with a zigzag stitch—and calling it a day?
There’s a whole world of seam finishes out there that don’t require an overlocker, serger or fancy tools. And once you try them, you might never go back…

In this video, I show you seven seam finishes you can do on a regular machine (or with just a pair of scissors!). These options are great if you don’t have a serger, want a neater finish, or you're ready to try something new.


📌Which one are you going to try next? Leave a comment—and I just might make a follow-up tutorial on your favourite.
