Tip:
Blind stitch foot no. 3 is particu-
larly suitable for serging thin materials.
While sewing, the thread passes over
the bar thus preventing the fabric edge
from rolling up. This ensures a good,
smooth seam. The trimmed edge must
be guided along the stop. You can ad-
just the stop with the retaining screw.
