UTILITY GARMENT SEWING GATHERING FOOT #2500259.09 M/C Code: MA, MB, MC, CA, CB, CC, CE, EA, EB, EC The Gathering Foot is used to form gathers in fabric. It can gather a single fabric or gather and attach to a second flat fabric simultaneously. It works best on light to medium weight fabrics. The foot has a large needle opening to allow for various needle positions and a slot that opens the left. To gather a single layer of fabric: 1. Attach the Gathering Foot securely. 2. Place the fabric under the foot and sew. 3. For a wider seam allowance, move the needle to the left. To gather and attach a second flat fabric simultaneously: 1. Attach the Gathering Foot securely. 2. Place the fabric to be gathered under the Gathering Foot right side up. 3. Place the fabric that will attach to the gathered fabric into the slot from the left side opening with the right side down. 4. Sew, keeping the two layers of fabric aligned, but not holding them to prevent them from feeding while stitching together. Note: A longer stitch length and tighter tension will produce fuller gathers. ROLLED HEM FOOT #2500260.06 M/C Code: MA, MB, MC*, CA, CB, CC, CE, EA, EC The Rolled Hem Foot rolls the fabric to enclose the raw edge while sewing. It works best with very light to medium weight fabrics. This foot allows for quickly sewing professional finished edges for ruffles, scarves, napkins, etc. 1. Snap on Rolled Hem Foot. 2. Fold and press a double hem the width of the finished hem on the underside of the fabric - about 1-1½". 3. Place under the presser foot and stitch a few stitches along the folded hem. 4. Stop with the needle in the fabric, raise the presser foot and position the folded hem into the funnel or scroll portion of the foot. 5. Lower the Rolled Hem Foot and continue to sew, holding the fabric vertically - the funnel or scroll will "roll" the fabric to form the hem. Models 4208 and 4212 require the optional universal shank part #250052596 Note: The Rolled Hem Foot can also be used for couching yarn or decorative threads. Feed the end of the yarn through the funnel and into the groove under the foot. Set the machine for a zigzag or decorative stitch, adjusting the length and width as desired. 15
