HEMMING WITH ZIGZAG STITCHES
Use zigzag hemmer.
Regulate the stitch length at the longest and set zigzag stitch
dial just as wide as the hem made by the hemming foot.
Fold the hem edge and slide the folded hem into the hemming
foot, which is still raised.
Lower the needle into the cloth. If necessary, push the edge
of the cloth well into the roll and lower the hemming foot.
Then, start sewing.
BLINDSTITCHING
By means of blindstitching, it is possible to sew together a folded piece of fabric or two pieces of
fabric in such a manner that the seam is not visible on right side of material.
There are two
ways of this stitching as illu.strated
(Fig A) and (Fig B).
(A)
Shows an example of blindstitching. Firstly, place the material under
the presser foot so that
the folded part runs along the right edge of the foot. A sewing part of fabric should be
folded in
a desired width, leaving a sewing
margin of nearly 3 to 4 mm.
Secondly, adjust
ZICTZAG width and arrange the needle so
as to stay at the left hand
side for ZIGZAG
sewing.
