Gathering
38
*The gathering foot is an optional accessory not supplied
with this machine.
Turn the pattern selector dial so that the stitch display
shows the letter “A” for the straight stitch position.
1. Attach the gathering foot.
2. Sew a single row or multiple rows of straight stitches.
3. If more gathering is required, loosen the upper thread
tension to below “2” so that the lower thread lies on the
under side of the material.
4. Pull the lower thread to gather more of the material.
Please Note:
If you don’t have this foot, substitute it with the all-purpose
foot and gather the fabric by hand by lowering the tension
setting to below “2” and pulling the lower thread to gather
the material.
