It's like a fancy T! :-) Really, the pre-serging is just sewing (often with a slightly wider stitch), inside the seam line (so it will be covered by the serger and to give me a bit more room for fitting before I serge off the fabric). It also helps me to ensure that I'm using the serger for the neat finish - not to align things and serge at the same time.<br /><br />Mind you, sometimes I just use the serger.
