INSERTING ZIPPERS AND PIPING

Use zipper foot to sew to the right or left of the zipper or close

to the cording.

INSERTING ZIPPERS

To sew down the right side, attach left side of zipper foot to

presser foot holder so that the needle passes through the

opening on the left side of the foot.
To sew down the left side, attach right side of foot to foot

holder.

HAND-LOOK QUILT STITCH

This stitch is designed to look like hand sewing for topstitching

and quilting.
1. Thread bobbin with desired top stitching color. When

sewing the machine will pull this thread to the top.

2. Thread machine with invisible or lightweight thread that

matches your fabric. This thread should not show.

3. Increase thread tension a little at a time and continue until

you acheive the desired appearance.

4. Start to sew.

PIPING

To pipe soft furnishings, cover cord with a bias strip of fabric

and pin or tack it to the main piece of fabric.
Attach right side of zipper foot to foot holder so that needle

passes through the opening on the right side of the foot.

Helpful Hint: Slight adjusting of the needle position to

sew closer to the piping may be accomplished with

the Stitch Width Control.

NOTE: For a dramatic appearance, experiment with

different tension and stitch length combinations.
