My Bernina's Back and There's Gonna be Serging

It went away to be repaired
It bothered me, every night
And when I had to do without
I said things that weren't very nice


My Bernina's back, and there's gonna be some serging
(Hey-la-day-la my Bernina's back)
I've got it home and set it up on the double
(Hey-la-day-la my Bernina's back)
While it was away I was feeling awful blue
(Hey-la-day-la my Bernina's back)
But I've tried it out and it's working just like new

(Hey-la-day-la my Bernina's back)
(Hey, without it has been tryin')
(And there was a lot of sighin')

It's been gone for such a long time
(Hey-la-day-la my Bernina's back)
Now it's back and things'll be fine
(Hey-la-day-la my Bernina's back)
I'm sorry I left its servicing so long
(Hey-la-day-la my Bernina's back)
Cause it's kinda smart and it's awful strong
(Hey-la-day-la my Bernina's back)
(Hey with all the fabric it's been eatin'!)
(I work it so hard it really takes a beatin'!)

My Bernina 800 DL serger makes terrific rolled hem edges. This is an edge I use all the time on Kayla Kennington garments. It takes some getting used to but after a bit of practice (and if your machine is properly serviced) it's a great construction technique. The Bernina 800 DL is known for making a great rolled hem. While it was in the shop, I used my old Kenmore machine and while I finally got a respectable rolled hem out of it, it was no picnic. So when Linda of Oakville Sewing Centre called to say "Your baby's ready for pick-up" I was out there like a shot.

Also Linda said that there's going to be a sale on Bernina's starting October 15, so if you are in the market for a new serger, give her a call or drop by to test drive one.
