RoseMary Keene is a serger expert and has taught on sergers, specifically Babylock sergers, since 2000. She uses, teaches on and loves the Babylock sergers. She began her sewing ‘career’ at age 10, like so many of us did, and ventured out to sergers in 1998. In the world of teachers in the sewing industry, she is very experienced and brings a lot to the table for people new to sergers, as well as those who have been serging for a long time. Her past experiences also include teaching on embroidery, embroidery software, specifically Babylock/Brother software, as well as quilting classes and private instruction, and was an educator for Wonderfil Threads.
She is a Clothing and Textiles Advisor (CTA) in the State of Washington via a program by Washington State University and for many years led a local American Sewing Guild group. Past employment included working for 2 sewing dealerships since 2000. She, along with her husband, own and operate a small manufacturing business and a portion of that is also machine embroidery/sewing. In March, 2019 she started her own serger workshop program, ‘Roma’s Serger University’ after having taught Sue Green-Baker Serger Workshops from 2012 to 2019. She was the top serger educator for this company and often requested by all dealers she taught for. She ‘retired’ from dealerships in order to educate through workshops exclusively. These workshops involve traveling throughout the US to Babylock dealers. She is currently also a national educator for OESD based in Oklahoma.
Have you wondered what exactly a serger is and what can you accomplish with it? Regardless of what serger you have or are contemplating, you will learn how they work after this class. Everyone will be using a Babylock Triumph serger for 3 days!
After the workshop, you will know what sergers do and how they do it! Sergers eliminate extra steps both in construction and decorative techniques, as well as create beautiful finished edges. One of the many advantages of a serger is that it cuts, seams and finishes (overcasts) all in one operation. You will have a professional look in only a fraction of the time and with much less effort. You still need your sewing machine but think of it as a companion to your serger. They go together like your stove top and oven (microwave too!).
For years, serger finishes have been widely used solely on the inside of garments for overcasting seams and construction. Now, sergers can not only finish the inside seams but create beautiful hems, quilting, piecing, top finishes and wonderful home décor items.
