Gathered fabric
Remove the presser foot holder and attach the
gathering foot, lowering the tension setting to
below 2.
Suitable for light to medium weight
fabrics.
Place fabric to be gathered under presser foot to
the right of the presser foot.
Sew a row of stitching, keeping the raw edge of
fabric aligned with the right edge of foot.
The stitches automatically cause the fabric to
gather.
To gather and attach gathered fabric in one step
Look closely at the gathering foot to see a slot on
the bottom.
When using the slot, you can gather the bottom
layer of the fabric while attaching it to a flat top
layer, such as the waistband on a dress bodice.
* The Gathering foot accessory is optional. It is
not included with this machine.
Note:
Note:
When testing machine for adjustments
to achieve desired fullness, work with 10"
increments of the fabric, trims or elastic. This
makes it easier to determine the adjustments
and how much change is needed for your
project. Always test on your project fabric
and on the same grainline as will be used in
your finished project.
Sew slow to medium speed for better
fabric control.
- Remove the presser foot holder and attach
gathering foot.
