Gathering

Page 30 highlights

Gathering foot (Only supplied against extra charge) Insert gathering foot. Adjust machine upon plain stitch sewing. Put the material to be gathered under the gathering foot, that is to say not into the transverse slot. Lower the gathering foot by means of the presser foot lever and insert the piece of material, which must remain quite flat, into the transverse slot of the gathering foot as far as it will go. To increase the amount of gathering on the bottom material, hold the top material back. The more it is held back, the greater the fullnes of gathering, and vice-versa. If only ony layer of material has to be gathered, place the material beneath the gathering foot onto the feed dog, and the length of stitches will regulate the fullness of the gathering. A longer stitch will increase the fullness, whereas a shorter one will decrease it. 28
