Project Runway Limited Edition- and Serging

Anyone have a Project Runway Limited Edition 120 stitch sewing machine? What stitch do you use when you want to serge? 

XOXO, JM

Sewing machines can't serge. They can do an overlock stitch with an overlock foot (they usually come with the machine). There are specialty feet that will cut as you sew, but, they're not very good on all fabrics. And obviously, a sewing machine only has two threads- so, it can't do anything close to a 3 or 4 thread serge stitch.

I have this machine!  It's a good one!  Like pp said, you can't serge on a sewing machine.  However, you can zigzag the edges of something...
