Page 173 highlights

Narrow-edge foot This presser foot makes narrow-edge topstitching easier. It is excellently suited to edge-joining separate fabric pieces, i.e. attaching lace to a finished fabric edge. The metal guide in the center of the foot keeps the two fabrics separated. Topstitching with a narrow edge For narrow-edge topstitching place the center guide of the presser foot against the fabric edge. Move the needle into the desired left-hand position and topstitch. The center guide allows for perfect topstitch spacing. Stitch No: 1 Stitch length: 2.5 mm Sewing on lace Place the folded/pressed edge of your fabric to the left of the center guide and the finished edge of your lace to the right of the center guide. Both fabric and lace should be placed under the foot right side up. The center guide will keep the fabrics properly separated allowing for more precise stitching. Choose zigzag stitch No. 3 and sew catching the edge of the fabric and the lace. Adjust the width and length of your zigzag as desired. Stitch No: 3 Stitch length: I - 3.0 mm Stitch width: 1.5- 3.5 mm Bias tape binder Binding with bias tape is a very easy method of giving fabric edges a smooth and neat appearance. For this you need unfolded bias tape about 2.5cm (1') wide. Remove the presser foot and holder. Attach the bias binder. Cut the beginning of the bias tape at a diagonal. Feed the tape into the scroll of the binder and pull out to the back. • Adjust the binder and/or the needle position so that the needle pierces the fabric approximately 1-1.5 mm (1/16") from the folded edge of the bias tape. This can also be achieved by changing the needle position. • Stitch about 2.5 cm (1 ') along the bias tape. Insert the edge of the fabric to be bound between the bias tape edges into the slot of the binder. The bias tape will enclose the raw edge automatically during sewing. Tip: You can obtain an additional decorative effect by using a zigzag or decorative stitch. Stitch No: 1 Stitch length: 2.5 mm

guide
and
the finished
edge
of
your
lace
to
the

should
be
placed

Binding
with
bias
tape
is
a
very
easy
method
of
giving
fabric
edges
a
smooth
and
neat
appearance.
For
this
you
need
unfolded
bias
tape
about
2.5cm
(1’)
wide.
Remove
the
presser
foot
and
holder.
Attach
the
bias
binder.
Cut
the
beginning
of
the
bias
tape
at
a
diagonal.
Feed
the
tape
into
the
scroll
of
the
binder
and
pull
out
to
the back.
Adjust
the
binder
and/or
the
needle
position
so
that
the
needle
pierces
the
fabric
approximately
1-1.5
mm
(1/16”)
from
the
folded
edge
of
the
bias
tape.
This
can
also
be
achieved
by
changing
the
needle
position.
Stitch
about
2.5
cm
(1
‘)
along
the
bias
tape.
Insert
the
edge
of
the
fabric
to
be
bound
between
the
bias
tape
edges
into
the
slot
of
the
binder.
The
bias tape
will
enclose
the
raw
edge
automatically
during
sewing.
Tip:
You
can
obtain
an
additional
decorative
effect
by
using
a
zigzag
or
decorative
stitch.
