Simplicity SA2200 - Manual (Page 24)

The cording foot evenly guides decorative threads as
you sew them in place.
Cut three strands of decorative cords (pearl cotton, baby
yarn, etc.) several inches longer than the finished length.
Use matching or contrasting thread in the needle. Before
attaching the foot to the machine, place the cords under
the spring plate and into the slots on the front of the foot
[Fig. 1]. Attach the foot to the machine. Place the fabric
and cords under the foot and sew [Fig. 2].
Crazy quilt patchwork is a wonderful way to use ran-
dom-shaped fabrics and an excellent project for using
sewing machine stitches creatively.
Begin with a base fabric, such as muslin. Top the base
fabric with quilt batting (optional). Pin a fabric piece,
right side up, in the center of the base fabric. Place a
second piece of fabric on top of the first piece, right
sides together, aligning fabric edges. Sew a straight stitch
along the fabric edge [Fig. 3]. Flip the second piece over
and press the seam. Select stitch “K” and topstitch along
the finished seam [Fig. 4]. Continue to add, sew, and
topstitch fabric pieces, covering raw edges until the base
fabric is covered.
