To do this, hold both needle threads in your left hand. Thread Tension Slightly increase the bobbin thread tension, and increase or decrease the needle thread tension depending on the type of fabric used. If the tension has been set correctly, the bobbin thread should appear as a faint zigzag line on the other side. Filled Cording If you want to make cording in filmy fabrics or render your cording more prominent, Plaff recommends that you insert a filler cord. Its thickness depends on the cording size you want. Remove the bed slide and pass the filler cord from below through hole g located in front of the oval needle hole f (see ill, on page 40). Lay the end of the filler cord back under the cording foot (together with the needle and bobbin thread ends). Pull a filler cord forward under the bed slide and place the ball in your lap. 41 DR 521
