Decorative stitching

Your sowing machine has several
stitches which are purely decorative.
These versatile stitches allow you to

add imagination and creativity to
your sewing projects. With these

decorative stitches, you can apply to
clothes

and

household

items:

interesting details, youthful and

feminine accents, and personalized
effects. Some of the many applica­
tions of the decorative stitches

include border designs, appliques,

twin-needle stitching, finished hems,
smocking, embroidering, monograms

and topstitching accent lines on
clothes. The following pages illus­
trate decorative stitches on your

machine and provide examples for
their creative use.

Border Design

Border designs that add a decorative

touch

to

wearing

apparel

and

household items can be created by
combining different types of straight
stitching

and

zig-zag

stitching.

Simple or elaborate, delicate or
bold, they can be varied to suit tlic

application. Use them as you would
a braid or to simulate horizontal,
vertical or bias stripes on plain

fabric.

Procedure

Mark or crease fabric for the centre
line of first row of stitching. If

spacing between rows is not greater
than 1.3 cm (1/2 inch), gauge
additional rows with the presser
foot. If spacing is wider, mark for
each line of stitching. Use a backing
of crisp lawn, organdy or a fusible
interfacing. Be sure to make a te.st

sample on a swatch of your fabric to
check stitch settings and thread

tension, being sure to duplicate
thickness and interfacing or backing
if appropriate.
