Refer to page 10 for how to insert the needle. Threading the two needles is done in the same way as described on page 59. Detach the sewing foot. (Lower the folding table if raised.) Pass the filler thread through the cut-out at the front edge of the needle plate and, with the help of the threader, pull it up through the guide slot located in front of the needle hole. Attach the piping foot and place the end of the filler thread under the centre groove to the back of the foot. Deposit the hank of thread in your lap where it will unwind itself. Now place the fabric under the foot and start making the first row of stitches. Then turn the fabric and make a second row of stitches close to the first one, letting the sword-shaped needle enter the very holes that were made in the first row of stitches. Cut off the ends of the filler thread close to the fabric. o lass bat is t e is especially suitable for this sewing technique where nothreads are drawn out. When working with Ii n en and similar material, you first draw out a number of threads as you would do when hemstitching by hand. You may start stitching at the edge of the fabric or anywhere in the middle of it. In the latter case you should fasten the ends of the stitch rows by making a few zigzag stitches across them, with the zigzag lever set on 2 (for correct setting see page 22 and sketch on page 39). 38

how
to
insert
the
needle.
Threading
the
two
needles
is
done
in
the
same
way
as
described
on
page
59.
Detach
the
sewing
foot.
(Lower
the
folding
table
if
raised.)
Pass
the
filler
thread
through
the
cut-out
at
the
front
edge
of
the
needle
plate
and,
with
the
help
of
the
threader,
pull
it
up
through
the
guide
slot
located
in
front
of
the
needle
hole.
Attach
the
piping
foot
and
place
the
end
of
the
filler
thread
under
the
centre
groove
to
the
back
of
the
foot.
Deposit
the
hank
of
thread
in
your
lap
where
it
will
unwind
itself.
Now
place
the
fabric
under
the
foot
and
start
making
the
first
row
of
stitches.
Then
turn
the
fabric
and
make
a
second
row
of
stitches
close
to
the
first
one,
letting
the
sword-shaped
needle
enter
the
very
holes
that
were
made
in
the
first
row
of
stitches.
Cut
off
the
ends
of
the
filler
thread
close
to
the
fabric.
o

especially
suitable
for
this
sewing
technique
where
nothreads
are
drawn
out.
When

you

In

them,
with
