Cording foot

Cording is a technique in which pearl thread or
a fi ne cord is overstitched to
produce a purl seam. With this you can
obtain an effect similar to braiding.
• 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.
• Overstitch the pearl thread with a narrow
satin 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.

Appliqué foot
Appliqués are easily sewn and always produce
a beautiful effect. By using different materials
and patterns you can create countless new
designs. You can make a perfect, densely
stitched seam with the appliqué foot, which has
a special cutout on its sole for the satin-stitch
seam.
• Attach the appliqué foot.
• Transfer your drafted pattern to the paper
side of a fusible, paper-backed webbing.
Remember that any letters or numbers have
to be drawn as mirror images.
• Iron the fusible webbing onto the appliqué
material. Cut out your motif and peel the
paper from the back of the appliqué.
• Position and press your appliqué pieces in
place on your base fabric.
• Place a stabilizer under your work area.
• Sew over the edges of the appliqué material
with a narrow satin stitch zigzag. Make sure
that the stitch covers the outer edge so that
no fraying occurs later.
