If you work with knits, a serger or overlock gives a clean finish that retains stretch--something that you can't do well with a straight stitch sewing machine. If you work strictly with wovens, there are multiple ways to finish seams, either by hand or with a straight stitch: hongkong finish, pinked edges, french seams, flat felled seams, turned seams, hand whip stitched, blanket stitched, bias bound seams, etc.
