8. FREE-ARM SEWING Fabric handling, when sewing tubular and hard to reach garment areas, is simplified when you convert your machine to free-arm sewing. A few of the sewing jobs for which you will find the free arm particularly useful are shown on the following pages.

The extra control afforded by the free arm is especially helpful for topstitching flat-fell seams. Badges, emblems and insignia of all sizes and shapes can be attached to shirts and uniforms by slipping sleeve or hard-to-reach area over the sewing surface.

EDGE FINISHES The free-arm surface makes it easy to finish sleeves, pant legs and waistlines. These circular garment areas rotate smoothly around the sewing surface, giving you full visibility and control as you blindstitch hems, attach elastic, or topstitch cuffs.

DARNING AND MENDING Knees, elbows and other areas of wear in children’s clothes, sweaters, jackets and shorts become readily accessible for darning, mending or patching when the free- arm surface is used. The sewing surface fits inside the enclosed sleeve and leg areas, making it unnecessary to open seams or roll the garment.
