Gathering with the straight stitch

With program B you can gather sleeves,
skirts and valances with a stitch length of
4 mm. To ensure a consistent gathering
effect you should sew two or three rows of
gathers.
• Mark the rst line on the face side of
the fabric and sew along it. Allow the
threads to extend approx. 10-20 cm be-
yond the ends of the fabric.
• Each subsequent seam can be sewn
one presser foot width from the last.
• Gather the piece of fabric by pulling
the bobbin thread. You determine the
amount of gather by how much you pull
the thread.
• Secure the gathers by knotting the
thread ends.
