Smocking is a delicate decorative treatment used on
children's clothes or women's blouses.
Use a soft and lightweight fabric such as batiste, gingham
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.
