Turning a square corner

The cornering guide helps you maintain a 5/8˝
(1.6 cm) seam allowance when sewing a corner.
When the fabric edge facing you lines up with
the cornering guide as illustrated, stop stitching
and lower the needle into the fabric by turning
the handwheel toward you.
Raise the presser foot and pivot the fabric so the
edge of the fabric will align with the 5/8˝ (1.6 cm)
seam guide.
Lower the presser foot and start stitching in the
new direction.
