Sewing Techniques
Overlocking Outside Corners
When you are overlocking and trimming at the
same time, you should cut the fabric by
hand at each corner along the stitching line
for about 3cm (1 1/2") before turning the
fabric. Make the cut to each corner before
sewing begins.
Stop sewing when you reach the end of the
fabric, leaving the needle in its highest
position. Raise the presser foot and gently
remove the stitches from the stitch finger.
Turn fabric. Align the sewn stitches with the
needle. Lower the presser foot and pull up
on the needle thread to remove any slack.
Continue sewing.
Overlocking Inside Corners
Clip the inside corner approximately
6 mm (1/4").
Fold the fabric into a straight edge and
sew along the edge. The movable
cutting blade should barely trim along
the fabric edge.
Unfold fabric and press it.
Sewing Curved Edges
For inside curves, guide the fabric gently,
applying pressure with your left hand at
point
in the direction of the arrow, while
at the same time applying a little pressure
in the opposite direction with your right
hand at point
.
For outside curves, sew in a similar
manner, but by applying the pressure in
the opposite directions.
