Use a thread which is not too heavy and
matches the material being hemstitched (pref
erably a No. 50 embroidery thread).
Insert a System 130 Zwi-Ho needle.
Make sure the needle and bobbin threads
are the same size. The threading procedure
is the same as for cording work. Slightly in
crease the needle thread tension. The hem-
stitching effect is produced by the left wing
needle
penetrating
the
fabric.
Turn
the
fabric by half a turn and sew the second
seam, guiding the material so that the wing
needle enters the needle holes it has made
in the fabric previously.
You can produce a nice hemstitching effect
atorcg the hemmend edge of the fabric by
guiding the material so that the wing needle
follows the hemline and the ordinary needle
stitches into the fabric close to the hem.
Hemstitching effect obtained with a stitch
width of 2 mm.
