INSERTING ZIPPERS AND PIPING

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

sew close to a cord.

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.

PIPING

Create a piping by covering a filler cord with a bias strip of fabric.

Attach the right side of the zipper foot to the foot holder so that

the needle passes through the right side of the zipper foot.

Baste the seam allowances together, enclosing the filler cord,

forming seam tape for the piping.

Helpful Hint: Slight adjusting of the needle position to

sew closer to the piping may be accomplished with

the Stitch Width Control.

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.
2. Thread the needle with either invisible thread or with thread

that is a color which blends in with the fabric color, so it

doesn’t show.

3. Increase thread tension toward 6 or higher until you

achieve the desired appearance.

4. Set the stitich length at 4 (maximum).
5. Start to sew.
