USING ATTACHMENTS AND APPLICATIONS
43
Gathering
1
Loosen the tension of the upper thread so
that the lower thread lies on the underside
of the material.
2
Sew a single row (or many rows) of
straight stitches.
3
Pull the lower threads to gather the
material.
Darning
1
Raise the presser foot lever, and then slide
the feed dog position switch to (see
page 15).
2
Remove both the presser foot and presser
foot holder assembly and then lower the
presser foot lever.
3
Put the section you want to darn under
the presser foot together with fabric for
reinforcement.
4
Turn on the machine.
CAUTION
5
Begin sewing by alternating between
gently drawing the work away from you
and pulling it toward you.
Sew while holding the fabric stretched in
order to keep the fabric held down.
6
Repeat this motion until the section being
darned is filled with parallel lines of stitching.
7
When you are finished darning, slide the feed
dog position switch to (see page 15),
and turn the handwheel to raise the dogs.
T
he feed dog position switch is normally set
to the right side.
The feed dogs come up when you start
sewing again.
Appliqués
You can create an appliqué by cutting a different piece
of fabric into a shape and applying it as a decoration.
1
Baste the cut design to the fabric.
2
Carefully sew around the edge of the
design with a zigzag stitch.
