Threading Place a spool of thread onto each of the two spool pins. Pass both threads together as usual through the two thread guides, then separately around the upper tension cne thread on each side of the centre disc; and through the holes of the thread tche-up lever and again together through the next thread guide. Now pass one thread each through the eyelets on the piping head and from front to back through the needles (as with twin-hem needle pictured on page 38). When picking up the bobbin thread, hold both upper threads with your left hand. ?iping Techniqies sewing slightly pronounced piping in thick and fairly thick material, no gimp thread is used. You can now start sewing immediately at a stitch length of prefer ably not more than 5/64". Spacing between the Piping When laying a number of piping stitches lengthwise, just let the edge of the sew ing foot slide along the previous row of piping stitches to ensure neat parallel seams. The spacing can be further reduced by sewing with piping feet with more than one groove, where one of the off-centre grooves glides on the previous row of piping stitches. For extremely narrow piping (also for the hemstitch mentioned on page 37 and for cording, page 53) you can obtain a spe cial piping foot No. 847682 with seven grooves (each 1/16" wide), upon request and at extra charge. If you want to have larger spacings be tween two ore more rows of piping stitch es, you may use the quilting guide 847482 with clamp 847480 referred to on page 29. 59
