Practical Stitches
Set the machine as illustrated. Turn the stitch length dial to suit the fabric.
Shell ham (1)
For decorative edges. Suitable for edges on sheer, fine and stretch fabrics. The larger stitch
should go just over the edge of the fabric to create the shell effect.
Rampart (2)
For flat joining seams, sewing on elastic, visible hems. This stitch can be used for firm, thicker
fabrics.
