DECORATIVE EFFECTS
In addition to normal overlocking which is fully
described in this instruction book, your machine
can also be used for a number of decorative
applications such as decorative top-stitching,
butted seams ,pin-tucking or making lengths of
decorative braid. See below.
Decorative top-stitching-using only two
threads or using three threads (flat seam)
Fold fabric along the line to be top-stitched and
sew over the folded edge, making sure not to cut
into the fold. Fig. A.
Unfold the fabric, pull the ends of the threads to
the underside and press flat.
The final appearance can be enhanced by using
buttonhole twist or embroidery thread on the
lower looper.
Butted seams-using only two threads or using
three threads (flat seam)
Place two pieces of fabric wrong sides together
and overlock along the edge. Unfold and press.
By using different coloured fabrics and thread a
pleasing 'patchwork' effect can be achieved.
Pin-tucking-using three threads
Fold fabric along a line to be pin-tucked and
overlock sew along the folded edge, making sure
hot to cut into the folded edge of the fabric. (See
page 25). Pull ends of threads to underside and
press.
Making decorative braid-using three threads
Overlock over a cord braid, holding it carefully
with both hands, making sure not to cut the edge.
(See page 25).
NOTE: *If you use blind hem foot(option),
decorative stitch is made easily.
**Reduce the upper looper ten sion when
you use thick thread.
