Turning Tubes
Set the serger for a narrow 3-thread overlock stitch (right needle).
Adjust settings as indicated for a balanced stitch.
Adjust stitch length to 1.5mm.
Serge a thread chain several inches longer than the fabric.
Fold the fabric, right sides together, to 1” x 6” encasing the thread chain
against the fold.
With the folded edge aligned with the left edge of the presser foot,
serge the tube. Be careful not to catch the thread chain in the stitching.
After stitching the tube, gently pull on the thread chain and turn the tube
right side out.
Mount the sample.
