Smocking is a delicate decorative treatment on
children's clothes or women's blouses.
Choose a soft and lightweight fabric such as batiste,
gingham or challis. Cut the fabric three times wider
than the projected width, Set stitch length at "4"
and sew rows of straight stitches 1 cm (3/8) apart
across the area to be smocked.
Knot the threads along the edge. Pull the bobbin
threads to distribute the gathers evenly and secure
the threads.
Sew the decorative stitches of your choice between
the gathered rows. Remove the gathering stitches.
NOTE: Loosen the needle thread tension to make
gathering easier.

This stitch is ideal for 0.6 cm (1/4") seams on knits or
on medium to heavyweight woven fabrics where you
want a narrow seam. It is also great for sewing
spandex swim wear.
Place the fabric under the presser foot [A] so that the
stitches are made over the raw edge.
