______ x Shell edging prog 1416 -5+ 2A Stitch length; 1.5 mm f(ey; 28 pattern mirror in program 16 Shell edging provides nice trimming, especially on sheer, soft materials. Fold over the fabric edge once along the line which is to be decorated. During sewing the blindstitches draw inthefabric edge at regular intervals, thus producing a shell- edge effect. The stronger the needle thread ten sion, the more the fabric edge is indented (Fig. 2). Adding a wool thread in a different colour not only reinforces the edge, but also makes an attractive contrast trimming. Place the material under the needle so that it pro trudes far enough to allow the wide zigzag blindstitch to pass over its edge (Fig. 1). 4£ I 114
