Securing Ends
To avoid unravelling, it is necessary to leave a
thread chain about 5 cm (2´´) long at the beginning
and at the end of a seam. To secure the beginning
and end of a seam choose one of the following
methods.
At the beginning
A. Separate the end of the threads and knot them.
B. Thread the chain through a large eyed needle,
and weave the chain through the overlock
stitches on the fabric.
C. Cut the chain at the edge of the fabric. Then
apply a small amount of seam sealant (Fray

or Fray-No-More

) on the end of the
threads.
D. 1. Before putting your fabric in the machine, sew
a thread chain about 5 cm (2´´) long behind the
needle.
2. Put your fabric on the machine. Then serge a
few stitches and stop.
3. Raise the presser foot and bring the thread
chain from the left, around and under the
presser foot.
4. Place the thread chain between the presser
foot and upper knife, holding it in position as
you lower the presser foot to sew.
5. After sewing about 2.5 cm (1´´), move the chain
to the right and under the upper knife, cutting
the chain as you sew.
At the end of a seam
*
You can use the same methods as “At the
beginning” to secure the end of a seam except
“D” or you can use the methods shown below.
1. Serge one stitch off the end of a seam.
2. Raise the needle and presser foot, and gently pull
the threads off the chaining finger.
3. Turn the fabric over so that the under side is up.
4. Serge about 2.5 cm (1˝) over stitching and angle
off the fabric.
