FRINGING
• Select stitch #2 - SW 2mm and SL satin - Tension 1 - Tailor Tack Foot #7.
• Put a contrast all-purpose sewing thread in the bobbin.
• Turn under ½” seam allowance on both pieces of fabric and press.
• Butt the folds together under the center of the presser foot, with right sides up.
• Guide fabric while sewing, so needle swings pierce both fabric pieces.
• Carefully remove the bobbin thread and gently separate the two fabrics, leaving them joined
by strands of the upper thread.
• Change to Embroidery Foot #6 and one of the following stitches:
- Stitch #35 on the 163 - SW about 4mm or
- Stitch #18 on the 153QE - adjust width as desired
•
Engage the Mirror Image function, if needed.
• Anchor the fringe to the fabric edge by oversewing it.
• After fringe is secured on one side, the other fabric can be pulled away.
• Trim excess seam allowance from wrong side if needed.
