For this you need unfolded bias tape about 1'' (2.5 cm) wide. • Remove the presser foot and holder. Attach the bias binder. • Cut the beginning of the bias tape at an angle. • Feed the tape into the scroll of the binder and pull out to the back. • Adjust the binder and/or the needle position so that the needle pierces the fabric approximately 1/16'' (1-1.5 mm) from the folded edge of the bias tape. • Stitch about 1'' (2.5 cm) along the bias tape. • Insert the edge of the fabric to be bound between the bias tape edges into the slot of the binder. The bias tape will enclose the raw edge automatically during sewing. Tip: You can obtain an additional decorative effect by using a zigzag stitch. Ruffler With the ruffler you can make closely or widely spaced pleats automatically while sewing. This is very useful for ruffles, home decorating, etc. The ruffler can be used in three different ways: 1. Folding pleats in fabric. 2. Folding and securing pleats in fabric in one operation. 3. Folding and securing pleats in fabric, while attaching lace in one operation. When you buy the ruffler from your PFAFF dealer, full operating instructions are included. 61
