Inserting Zippers And Piping; Hand-Look Quilt Stitch - Singer Futura CE-150 Instruction Manual

INSERTING ZIPPERS AND PIPING

Use the zipper foot to sew to the right or left of the zipper or to
sew close to a cord.
INSERTING ZIPPERS
To sew down the right side, attach left side of zipper foot to
presser foot holder so that the needle passes through the
opening on the left side of the foot.
To sew down the left side, attach right side of foot to foot
holder.
PIPING
Create a piping by covering a filler cord with a bias strip of fabric.
Attach the right side of the zipper foot to the foot holder so that
the needle passes through the right side of the zipper foot.
Baste the seam allowances together, enclosing the filler cord,
forming seam tape for the piping.
Helpful Hint: Slight adjusting of the needle position to
sew closer to the piping may be accomplished with
the Stitch Width Control.

HAND-LOOK QUILT STITCH

This stitch is designed to look like hand sewing for topstitching
and quilting.
1. Thread bobbin with desired top stitching color.
2. Thread machine with invisible thread or same color thread,
which matches fabric, so it doesn't show.
3. Increase thread tension toward 6 or higher until you
achieve the desired appearance.
4. Set the stitich length at 4 (maximum).
5. Start to sew.
NOTE: When the upper thread is loose, the machine may
stop in the beginning.
If the machine stops from the beginning, push the start
switch again.
