Elastic attaching
When elastic tape is attached to the cuff or waist of a
piece of clothing, the finished dimensions will be that of
the stretched elastic tape. Therefore, it is necessary that a
suitable length of the elastic tape be used.

Pin the elastic tape to the wrong side of the fabric.
Pin the elastic tape to the fabric at a few points to make
sure that the tape is uniformly positioned on the fabric.
b
Attach zigzag foot “J”.
c
Select a stitch.

Sew the elastic tape to the fabric while stretching the
tape so that it is the same length as the fabric.
While pulling the fabric behind the presser foot with
your left hand, pull the fabric at the pin nearest the front
of the presser foot with your right hand.
