7. Accessories 74 Pintuck foot with guide With this foot you can accurately sew pintucks with a spacing of 5 or 11 mm. The same foot allows you to precisely space decorative stitches with a width ranging between 6 and 9 mm between the pintucks. • Attach the pintuck foot with guide. The foot can be attached with the guide pointing to the left or the right. • Replace the sewing needle with a twin needle (1 .6 or 2 mm space between needles). • Thread the two needles (see page 2-11). • Set the bobbin thread tension tight and sew one pintuck (see also page 7-7) with or without gimp thread. • Place the first pintuck under the groove in the extended guide. Sew a second pintuck. The second pintuck will automatically 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 sewing needle. Place stabilizer under work area. Place two pintucks in the guides on either side of the center of the foot. Embroider your desired decorative stitches in this space.

Sew the fabric edges together with stitch 11 .The faggoting guide allows you to sew the edges at a constant distance, with a hemstitching effect.
