DARTS
Darts can be made in the usual way on your
sewing machine. That is, you begin stitching
at the wide end of the dart, stitch to the point,
and then fasten the two thread ends.
However, thanks to the push-button bobbin,
you can avoid the problem of fastening the
thread ends by making a "continuous-thread"
dart and stitching in the opposite direction.
This method is particularly useful for darts in
sheer fabrics, where transparency requires a
neat, clean finish. It is also useful for darts
made on the right side of a garment as a style
detail.
Regular Darts
• stitch; Straight |
• Stitch Width:
• Needle Position;
• Stitch Length: About 12 or to suit fabric
• Straight-stitch Plate
• Straight-stitch Foot
1. Stitch from the seam edge, tapering grad
ually to the point.
2. Stitch beyond the fabric to form a thread
chain Vz to % inch long.
3. Clip thread ends about 2 inches from dart
point and tie the ends into a single knot
close to the stitching.
Continuous-thread Darts
1. Set the machine as for regular darts.
2. Wind an empty bobbin with a small amount
of thread to make a single dart. (To hasten
separation of starting thread end from the
winding bobbin, pull thread end gently after
winding has started.)
3. Close slide plate, and position the needle
in the very edge of the fold, at the point of
basted or pinned dart. Lower presser foot.
4. Stitch carefully from the point to the wide
end of the dart at the seam edge.
Remove excess thread from bobbin and re
wind for each dart.
