Serging Curves

Inserting Tapes

A

B

To serge around inside or outside curves, guide the fabric into the cutting blade, not the needle(s).
Remember, cutting takes place before the fabric reaches the needle. Because the long serger presser foot
holds the fabric more securely, you may need to raise and lower the presser foot several times to mane uver
around very tight curves.

The slot in the standard presser foot is designed to guide stabilizing
tape, narrow elastic or decorative ribbon into the stitching. Insert tape
or elastic into the slot and under the back of the foot (fig. A). Adjust the
stitch width to match the tape width. Place the fabric under the foot and

stitch (fig. B).
