• Move position block on zipper foot to
left, to allow shank to enter right side

notch in foot.

CORDED SEAMS
The corded seam Is a professional treat­
ment for slipcovers, children's clothes,
blouses, and lingerie. To make a corded
seam, make the welting first (or buy it
ready-made at a notions counter), then
stitch it Into the seam. For both steps,
use the zipper foot to place the stitching
close to the cord.
