Turning Corners - Cover Stitch

Sew to the point in fabric where you want to turn a corner. Stop the machine. Turn the handwheel
toward you (counterclockwise) until the needles are down in the fabric. Turn the handwheel away from
you (clockwise) until the needles are in the highest position and the needles are out of the fabric.
Raise the presser foot (fig. A) and slowly pivot the fabric. Align the needles with the stitching on the
fabric (fig. B) and lower the presser foot. Continue to sew (fig. C).
To keep the stitch from unraveling at the corner(s), use a hand needle and thread to complete the
corner on the top of the fabric and catch the chain looper thread on the underside.
