Guest English Rose Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 I have some t-shirts that are to long and I would like to get them shortened. I will do the cutting and pinning but need someone with the serger machine to sew them. There are about 4 shirts. Thanks for any help. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for any help. 😊 I don't know what a "serger" machine is, but there are three very good seamstresses in Ajijic who can do the job. Two are next door to each other on 16 de Septiembre, Durazno and El Colibri. There is Rosie on Ocampo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudgirl Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Just because someone is a good seamstress, doesn't mean she can do the job. The OP knows of which she speaks- a serger is needed for t-shirt fabric. Here they call a serger an "over" as in overlock machine. It uses 3-5 threads which all connect and form a stretchy seam or hem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I'll guess that at least one of them can direct her to someone who CAN do it.🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
