Cording Foot; Felling Foot - Pfaff hobby 1022 Instruction Manual

Felling foot

Flat felled seams are particularly strong
and are commonly known as jeans
seams. Seams on sportswear and chil-
dren s wear, blouses and shirts are more
durable with this technique. You can make
these seams particularly decorative by us-
ing a sewing thread of a contrasting color.
The felling foot is available in two different
widths.
• Attach the felling foot to the presser foot
holder.
• Place the fabrics wrong sides together.
• Overlap the raw edge of the lower ply
by about 3/8 to 5/8 (1-1.5 cm).
• Place this overlapping edge over the
tongue of the felling foot. The fabric
must be placed fully under the presser
foot.
• Sew along the folded edge with a
straight stitch (stitch length 2.5-3 mm).
• Separate the fabric and feed the pro-
truding hem into the felling foot. The
hem is turned over by the foot and is
overstitched along the edge. Pull the
two fabric layers taut during sewing.

Cording foot

Cording is a technique in which pearl
thread or a ne cord is overstitched to
produce a purl seam. With this you can
obtain an effect similar to braiding. Ap-
pliqués can also be made more effective
with this seam.
• Attach the cording foot.
• Place the pearl thread in the foot so it
leads through one of the grooves at the
front and lies under the presser foot at
the back.
• Select a narrow satin zigzag stitch.
Model 1022, 1032: Select stitch D with
the pattern adjustment button (9) and then
the zigzag stitch in the required width. Set
stitch length to "buttonhole".
Model 1042: Select stitch D with the
pattern adjustment button (9). Set stitch
length to "buttonhole" and stitch width to
"2".
• Overstitch the pearl thread with a nar-
row satin zigzag stitch. This produces
what is known as the purl seam.
Tip: You can also obtain a remarkable
effect by overstitching a medium pearl
thread with a thread of a different color.
