7.5 Pintucks
Pintucks
Pintucks are narrow stitched folds, which are normally sewn on the fabric before cutting out the pieces for
the garment or the sewing project. They are suitable for embellishing or in combination with other heirloom
embroidery techniques. The use of Pintuck Feet can simplify this technique considerably. The technique
reduces the size of the fabric piece. It is always advisable to plan in sufficient fabric.
