L L L L Gathering with straight stitch If you wish to gather sleeves, skirts, cuffs or val ances, this technique is the easiest and most commonly used.To obtain neat and even gathers, you should sew two or three gathering seams. Select program 00 and lengthen the stitch length to 6 mm. The needle thread tension should be reduced to 3. • Mark the first line on the face side of the fabric and sew this seam. Leave about a 10-20 cm thread tail. • Further seams can be sewn at one sewing foot width from each other. • Gather the fabric by pulling the bobbin threads of the seams. You determine the amount of gather yourself. • Spread out the folds created by the gathering evenly and then tie the thread on the reverse side. This secures the gather. 122
