THE ELNA SERGER STORY

All of a sudden there seemed to be a rush of people talking about a new sewing machine on the market. Yes, their dressmaker had one and it could give your home sewn garments that factory finished look. Elna's engineers worked hard to decide what features their serger should have. They had a 3 thread but customers wanted a 4 thread so they designed it and had it built in Japan. Next they wisely built a 5 thread serger that could overlock and sew seams beside the overlocked stitches all in one operation.

Customers were impressed with a machine that would sew, cut and finish the seams at 1500 stitches per minute. Many almost sewers became intrigued with the idea of a serger. They bought one, took up sewing and proudly brought their garments in to Show and Tell what they had created on their machines.

For the sewer this was the answer to a dream, this serger at up 2-3-4 or 5 threads at once. It enabled them to sew tank tops, sweat suits, bathing suits, pajamas and dresses in not time at all. Many of our customers still say that the serger has taken 50 to 80% of the sewing that was once done by the sewing machine.

But you still need a sewing machine to make buttonholes, do regular mending, stitching and fancywork.

At Central Sewing Elna has been a name we are proud to have been associated with since 1963 and have been Canada's #1 dealer for many years.
