.4 T ¶4 ¶4- Twin-needle cording foot Using this foot you can sew cord ings with a clearance of 5 or 11 mm. You can use the same foot to embroider fancy stitches of 6 or 9 mm depending on the cording width, • Engage the twin-needle cording foot. The foot can be engaged in both directions so that the second cording can be sewn on either side. • Replace the sewing needle by a twin needle (needle gauge 1.6 or 2 mm). • Then thread two needle threads (see page ???). • Set the needle thread tension rather taut (5 approx.) and sew a cording (also see page ??? with or without gimp thread). • If you sew a second cording, you can let the cording that you have already sewn run in the guide groove which is protruding on one side of the foot for this end. This way you obtain the larger clearance where a fancy stitch can be sewn. • Topstitch all cordings. • Now replace the twin needle by a normal sewing needle. • Embroider the desired fancy stitch onto the wider clearance, e.g. program 86. To this end let the cordings run inside the guides of the sewing foot. Open appliqué foot Appliqués are quickly made and always produce a beautiful effect. You can obtain an additional effect if you use program 12 in connection with the open appliqué foot. Your appliqué will look as if stitched by hand. • Cut out the pieces of the motif without any seam allowance. • Iron paper-backed fusing web onto the back of the pieces of the motif. Now pull the paper off the pieces to be appliquéd and iron these onto the fabric according to the motif. • Engage the open appliqué foot. • Select program 12 and guide the edge of the motif along the right-hand inner edge of the foot. This will make sure that the needle runs evenly along the edge of the motif, that the straight stitch is almost entirely sink-stitched and a hand-made effect is obtained.
