Seaming Sheers
Use the 3-thread rolled hem setting when sewing sheer fabrics that otherwise would require
French seams. Set the stitch length at 2.5. Then simply sew the seams, aligning the fabric edges
with the serger seam guide, trimming away the excess seam allowance.

Use the rolled edge thread chain, stitched without
fabric, to make professional belt loops and button loops.
Using a heavy decorative thread in the upper looper
forms a stronger loop.
Clear the stitch fingers and return the stitch length dial to the standard range. Set stitch width
and length at the desired settings. Readjust tensions. Replace the left needle and its
corresponding thread, if desired.
A frilly or "lettuce" edge can be created on most light and
medium weight stretch fabrics and on bias edges of soft,
woven fabrics. It makes a pretty decorative edging for
activewear, lingerie, accessories and children's wear.
Set the machine for the 2-thread or the 3-thread rolled
edge. (refer to page 25, 31)
Set differential feed at 0.6. (fig. B) Serge the fabric in the
direction of greatest stretch - the crossgrain on knits, bias
grain on wovens. For a "leafier" effect, try using a shorter
stitch length and gently stretch the fabric (fig. A), as it is
being sewn. Sew a test sample. (fig. C)
