Notes
- Gathering over cord adds additional strength, eliminates thread
breakage, and allows better control of gathering.
- Do not sew through the cording, or it won't be able to move
through the channel formed by the stitches
- After gathering the fabric, drop the feed dog and sew a bartack
(see page 19) at the beginning and end of cord for strength.
