Drawn Work

Drawn work uses the same method as fringing.
Choose a firm, woven fabric like linen where threads
can be removed easily.
Carefully cut fabric on grain. Determine width of the
drawn work and remove one yarn or fabric thread at
each end.
Sew down right side, guiding fabric so left hand
stitches fall in open space.
After finishing left side, turn the fabric around 180 .
Sew down other side.
Remove the yarn or fabric threads between the
stitching.

Picot Stitch

The picot stitch can be used to sew fabrics together
"edge-to-edge".
1. Fold and press under the seam allowance to
wrong side of fabric on both fabric edges.
2. With the fabric right side up, place the folded
edges next to each other under the middle of the
presser foot. Sew with the folded edges touching
each other.
NOTE: Create fagoting (bridging), a technique seen
in heirloom sewing, with the optional Fagoting (Bridg-
ing) Plate. Two folded edges are joined together by
threads over an open area. See page 50.
