Serging Curves
Inserting Tapes
Cutting Blade Cover Seam Guide
To serge around inside or outside curves, guide the fabric into the cutting blade, not the needle(s).
Remember, cutting takes place before the fabric reaches the needle. Because the long serger
presser foot holds the fabric more securely, you may need to raise and lower the presser foot
several times to maneuver around very tight curves.
The slot in the standard presser foot is designed to guide stabilizing tape, narrow elastic or dec-
orative ribbon into the stitching. Insert tape or elastic into the slot and under the back of the foot.
(fig. A) Adjust the stitch width to match the tape width. Place the fabric under the foot and stitch.
(fig. B)
Use the marks on your serger's front cover and set the width dial
at "M" to align the fabric for accurate seam allowances.
When using the left needle, the second mark "L" from the
needle indicate 5/8 inch (16mm) from the cutting edge to the
needle.
Use the right needle, the third mark "R" from the needle to
indicate 5/8 inch (16mm) from the cutting edge to the needle.
Note: Be sure to set the width dial at the "M" setting for accurate
seam allowances.
