GATHERING FABRIC:
Place one layer of fabric under the presser foot and sew.
Generously feed fabric. The fabric will gather as you sew.
SHIRRING:
1. Place fabric to be gathered right side up under the presser
foot and under the separator.
2. Position the fabric up to the needles. Turn handwheel
forward 3-4 times to catch the fabric with the needles.
3. Place the fabric to attach the gather to right side down on
top of the separator. (See illustration.) This keeps the fabric
away from the feed dogs.
4. Place the fabric up to the needles. Turn the handwheel 3-4
turns to catch the fabric with the needles.
5. Gently guide the upper fabric into the separator while
generously guiding the lower fabric that is being gathered
under the separator. The ruffle will be sewn to the flat
fabric while sewing.
Easily make and attach ruffles as well as finish your edge in
one simple step. Add perfectly spaced ruffles to garments,
pillows, and other home décor items. This ruffling foot works
on all fabric types.

Note: Gathering works the best with fine fabrics. The
heavier the fabric the less the gathering.
