Cording
Sew over one, two or three strands of cord to embellish
fabrics. Pearl cotton, embroidery floss or fine wool yarn
can be used for cording.
* The Cording foot is an optional accessory.
Single cording
Mark the design on the fabric. Insert the cord in
➊
the center groove of the cording foot from the right
side opening. Pull the cord about 5 cm (2 inches)
behind the foot. The grooves of the foot will hold the
length of the cord in place while the stitches are being
formed over the cord.
Select the stitch and adjust the stitch width so that
the stitches are just covering the cord. Lower the foot
and sew slowly, guiding the cord over the design.
Triple cording
Push the sewing thread to the left and insert three
➋
cords into the grooves of the foot and pull about 5 cm
(2 inches) of the cords behind the foot.
Select the desired pattern and adjust the stitch width
so that the stitches are just covering the cords.
Lower the foot and sew slowly guiding the cords.
