DARNING AND MENDING
Knees, elbows and other areas of wear in children’s clothes, sweaters, jackets and shorts
become readily accessible for darning, mending or patching when the free-arm surface is used.
The sewing surface fits inside the enclosed sleeve and leg areas, making it unnecessary to open
seams or roll the garment. For darning, follow the instructions in Chapter 4 Straight Stitching,
page 44. Refer to Chapter 6 Machine Stitch Patterns, page 70 for mending information.
BAR TACKS
Bar tacks reinforce areas of strain and can be applied to ready-made garments, as well as to
those sewn at home. Use the free-arm surface to avoid fabric bulk around the needle when you
apply this detail to pockets and waistlines.
