terial may be folded over before placing it in the
slot so that a double thickness is stitched and will
not pull out. The surplus material is trimmed away
close to the stitching as shown in Fig. 50.
Piping with the Edge-Stitcher
Piping is very attractive if the correct contrasting
color is chosen for the piping material. Place the
piping, with its finished edge to the left, in slot 3
(Fig. 48). Place the edge to be piped in slot 4, as
shown in Fig. 51.
Piping should preferably be cut bias, and should
be cut to twice the width of the slot (3, Fig. 48) in
the edge-stitcher so that it can be folded once.
Applying Bias Folds with the Edge-Stitcher
Folded bias tape or military braid, used for neat
and colorful trimming, may be sewn on by placing
the garment under the edge-stitcher the same as
under a presser foot, and placing the tape in slot 1
or 4 (Fig. 48). To make a square corner, sew until
the turning point is reached, then remove the tape
