Pintuck

foot

with

guide

With

this

foot

you

can

accurately

sew

pin

-

tucks

with

a

spacing

of

5

or

11

mm.

The

same

foot

allows

you

to

precisely

space

de-

corative

stitches

up

to

6

mm

wide

between

the

pintucks.

-

Attach

the

pintuck

foot

with

guide.

The

foot

can

be

attached

with

the

guide

poin•

ting

to

the

left

or

the

right.

-

Insert

a

twin

needle

(1.6

or

2

mm

space

between

needles).

-

Thread

the

two

needles

(see

page

38).

-

Set

the

needle

thread

tension

tight

(4

-

5)

and

sew

one

pintuck

(see

also

page

81)

with

or

without

gimp

thread.

-

Place

the

first

pintuck

under

the

groove

in

the

extended

guide.

Sew

a

second

pin

-

tuck.

The

second

pintuck

will

automatical-

ly

be

spaced

to

allow

a

decorative

stitch

to

be

sewn

in

the

area

between

pintucks.

-

Sew

all

remaining

pintucks.

-

Replace

the

twin

needles

with

a

normal

two

pintucks

in

the

guides

on

either

side

of

the

center

of

the

desired

decorative

Teflon

foot

(for

leather)

The

synthetic

coating

on

the

underside

of

this

foot

makes

it

particularly

suitable

for

se-

wing

decorative

and

utility

stitches

on

leat-

her,

synthetic

leather

and

vinyl.

It

may

be

helpful

to

back

these

fabrics

with

a

fusible

woven

or

knit

interfacing.

Due

to

the

stretch

of

these

fabrics,

it

is

important

to

use

a

sta-

bilizer

under

the

fabric

when

embroidering.

In

the

case

of

thick

leather

we

recommend

a

needle

with

a

long

eye

(system

130

N)

and

in

the

case

of

softer

leathers

an

embroidery

needle

works

well.

-

Attach

Teflon

foot.

-

Embroider

leather

as

desired.

-

Remove

stabilizer.

WARNINGI

Very

closely

set

stitch,

i.e.

short

stitch

length/tight

stitch

density,

may

cause

lea-

thers,

synthetic

leathers

and

vinyl's

to

perforate.

It

is

important

to

remember

that

needle

piercing

points

will

remain

visible

in

leather.
