Help, how do I "serge" a neck facing?

[bumpyboo]

What does it even mean? I am quite new to sewing so any help/ advice appreciated

Hi, it's not a term I've seen before, but I've tried googling it and it seems to mean using a zigzag or overlocking stitch to protect the raw edge of your fabric. HTH!

A 'Serger' is another name for an overlocker. So I'd assume it means finish the edge of the fabric to stop it fraying.

thanks to you both for that, very helpful, I'm now going off to start "serging" !

are you using an american pattern at all?
