or challis.
Cut the fabric three times wider than the projected width.
Select straight stitch, set stitch length at "5.0" and loosen
the thread tension.
Sew rows of straight stitches 1 cm (3/8˝) apart across the
area to be smocked. Knot the threads along one edge.
From the other edge, pull the bobbin threads to distribute
the gathers evenly.
