Sewing Instructons:
Note:
- Pattern: Straight Stitch
- Stitch Length: Longest
- Loosen upper tension slightly.
Use this technique for gathering waistbands, sleeve caps etc.
At 1/4 of an inch from the edge of the seam, begin by
backstitching and then continue to sew the length required.
When seam is complete, raise the needle to it's highest,
raise the presser foot and pull the upper and lower threads to
the back of the foot.
Cut your thread ends leaving a minimum 6 inches of thread.
Repeat this procedure once again at 1/4 of an inch from your
first row of stitching.
Once the two rows are completed, draw in your fabric the
required amount by pulling on the bobbin thread. Secure
thread ends.
Don't forget to reset your tension for regular sewing.
