BERNINA S Fig. 21 The Edger with Outlier Guide As the illustration shows, the stitch hole is located right at the edge of the presser foot. This presser foot without guide is therefore particularly suitable for sewing directly along the edge of the fabric. If the edger is fitted with the quilter guide, it will be found ideal for quilting work, as the above illustration shows. First fix the quilter guide with the blade at the desired distance from the edger. Then make a seam and shift the material to the right, until the seam just made will be exactly below the blade of the quilter guide. Now run a further seam, following with the blade of the quilter guide the first one, and so on. When all the seams are made in one direction, repeat the operation in the transverse direction, i. e. at right angles to the first rows of seams. 30 Fig. 22 Zigzag Sewing (Use only 2 or 2 ply cotton, never 6 ply) For zigzag sewing set the machine as follows: 1. Bring take-up lever 25 to its highest point. 2. Insert zigzag presser foot (Fig. 28). Make sure not to use the zigzag embroidery foot, marked with one red stripe (Fig. 29). Its bottom side is hollow ground, while the zigzag foot is plain. Take top and bottom threads and lay them back under the presser foot. 3. Turn drop feed knob 28 to the right, until sewing sign will appear. 31

The
Edger
with
Outlier
Guide
As
the
illustration
shows,
the
stitch
hole
is
located
right
at
the
edge
of
the
presser
foot.
This
presser
foot
with-
out
guide
is
therefore
particularly
suitable
for
sewing
directly
along
the
edge
of
the
fabric.
If
the
edger
is
fitted
with
the
quilter
guide,
it
will
be
found
ideal
for
quilting
work,
as
the
above
illustration
shows.
First
fix
the
quilter
guide
with
the
blade
at
the
desired
distance
from
the
edger.
Then
make
a
seam
and
shift
the
material
to
the
right,
until
the
seam
just
made
will
be
exactly
below
the
blade
of
the
quilter
guide.
Now
run
a
further
seam,
following
with
the
blade
of
the
quilter
guide
the
first
one,
and
so
on.
When
all
the
seams
are
made
in
one
direction,
repeat
the
operation
in
the
trans-
verse
direction,
i.
e.
at
right
angles
to
the
first
rows
of
seams.
