7. FREE-ARM
SEWING
Fabric handling, when sewing tubular and
hard to reach garment areas, is simplified and
made easier when you use the free-arm
sewing capability of your sewing machine.
Sleeves
• Free-arm sewing takes the difficulty out of
topstitching, sleeves, finishing waistbands
and trouser legs rotate smoothly under the
needle, around the arm, allowing you to
place your stitching accurately.
Buttons
Sewing buttons on a cuff or neckband Is
easy with free-arm sewing. The sewing
arm allows room for cuffs to slip onto
without being stretched out of shape, and
you can also see and handle the stitching
area more easily.
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 bar
tacks to pockets, pleats and waistlines.
