[E838 Stitching Synthetic Materials Curtains Machine Setting: Stitch width lever A = I to 3, depending on material; needle position lever B = stitch length control = 1. To finish the edge of synthetic curtain fabrics, such as Diolen, use a matching synthetic thread. If necessary, ease the upper and lower tensons somewhat. Both these hints should be adhered to in order to avoid shrinking of both the thread and the fabric in the laundry. To butt seam the various sections of curtains, proceed as instructed on p. 31. Plastic Sheets Machine Setting: Stitch width lever A = 0 to 2; needle position lever B = 4- stitch length: medium. Plastic curtains, as are used in kitchens and bathrooms, are sewn with synthetic thread or cotton and a fine needle. Place a piece of tissue paper under sticky plastic sheets which can be easily removed after the sewing. To prevent plastic sheets from sticking to the sewing foot, wipe its sole with an oily cloth. 46
