Zigzag Stitch

The zigzag stitch is a very versatile stitch. Simply
change its width and length. See pages 33-34. Use
the zigzag to finish raw edges, sew narrow hems
and sew satin stitch appliques.
Depending on your needs, choose one of the three
zigzag variations – zigzag center
left , zigzag right
Zigzag, Center – Overcast
On-screen manual – see stitch 1/06
When the zigzag width is increased/decreased, the
stitch tapers to the center.
Finish fabric edges to prevent fabric from unraveling.
Place fabric edge against foot guide and sew. (Do
not set stitch width lower than 5.0 when using the C
foot.)
NOTE: If stitch width is lower than 5.0 attach the
A foot.
Multi-Cord Foot - Gathering Over a Cord
Gathering over a cord is an alternative method to the
two rows of straight stitching method. This
technique works well for gathering long lengths of
fabric such as curtains and bed ruffles.
1. Slide sewing threads to left and insert a strand
of cording into cording foot with 10 cm (4")
extending behind foot. The zigzag stitch creates
a casing over the cord.
2. Adjust stitch width so needle clears the cord.
3. After stitching, secure one end of the cord and
evenly gather fabric along cord.
Variation – Couching
Insert 3 strands of cording in the foot and use a
decorative stitch such as
unique borders and trims.
