The amount be determined by testing on a of gathering piece of wa fabric. Sew the seams at about foot width (Fig Tie off the seams on the reverse fabric side at beginning and end of the seams. If there are several parallel seams, the mater must be stretched to its original width dur sewing, otherwise the shirring will turn out irre lar. Do not forget to carry out a sewing test. - 88

For

with
elastic
threads
we
recomm
buying
an
additional
bobbin
case.
Because
elastic
threads
are
much
thicker
thar

bobbin
thread, the
tension
on
the

has
to
be
set
Iooser
The
greater
the

tension
the
greater
the
shirring
effect
The
most
suitable
fabrics
are
nylon,
satin,
bab
and
fine-knit
fabrics.
The
amount
of
gathering
be
determined
by
testing
on
a
piece
of

III
fabric.
Sew
the
seams
at
about
foot
width
(Fig
Tie
off
the
seams
on
the
reverse
fabric
side
at
beginning
and end
of
the
seams.
If
there
are
several
parallel
seams,
the
mater
must
be
stretched
to
its
original
width
dur
sewing,
otherwise
the
shirring

Do
not
forget
to carry
out
a
sewing
test.
