Serged stitching is the kind of stitching you find on the inside seams of ready-to-wear garments. This stitching is done on a machine called a "serger". A serger is threaded with 2, 3, or 4 threads at once. It sews, binds, and trims all at the same time.

What is a surge hem?
A "serged" hem is the kind of hem you'll find in most store-bought clothes. It is made with a sewing machine called a "serger" that uses three or four threads and a blade near the needle that trims the fabric as it is sewn. It's called "serged" in the USA but in other parts of the world this style of hem is call an "overlocked" hem.
