The multi-slotted binder is used to apply com­
mercial binding as well as self fabric bias to an
unfinished fedge.
This colorful trim is attractive when applied
to children’s wear, aprons and fabric furnishings.
It is a practical finish for seam edges that ravel
and for making bound seams.
The attachment will accommodate both
straight and zigzag stitching.

MULTI-SLOTTED BINDER
Cut binding diagonally to form a long point.
Commercial binding in sizes 1 to 5 is inserted
from the right into the appropriate slot in the
scroll. Unfolded bias of an inch wide is in­
serted into the opening at the end of the scroll.
Pull binding through scroll until the evenly
folded edges are under the needle. The free
length of the binding is held between the guide
pins.
Set Selector and Red Lever for either straight
or zigzag stitching.
Insert the edge to be bound into the center of
the scroll. The stitching is positioned close to
the edge of the binding by moving the scroll
portion of the attachment to the right or left by
means of the adjusting lug.
