Neat ways to
personalize
your sewing
Appliques, small pieces of fabric applied as
decorative trim- now are more popular than
ever in adding interest to children's wear,
sportswear, even dressy clothing. Select an
applique to compliment the main fabric and baste
it in-place, Using the satin stitch or paris point
stretch stitch isee page 33), sew around raw edge
of applique completely covering edge.
Try these ideas: Use a contrasting color
thread or a decorative pattern for visible
stitching. Use a delicate edge stitch, same
color thread, for appliques that look
practically "woven in",

QUILTING
GUIDE
This attachment comes in handy whenever you
want several rows of stitches an equal distance
apart--for garment trim as well as quilts, it consists
of a curved prong attached to a long bar on a holder,
The prong Js shifted back and forth on the holder to
establish the distance between rows of stitches.
Attach the quilting guide to presser foot as shown. Select
the desired stitch --straight or an embroidery type -- and
set the machine accordingly. After completing the first
row of stitching, place the guiding prong on this stitched
llne. The second row then can be placed at the desired
distance from first row, Continue working in this way for
as many rows as you want.
