CAUTION
5
When you have finished sewing, remove
the basting stitching.
Gathering
1
Loosen the tension of the upper thread so
that the lower thread lies on the underside
of the material.
2
Sew a single row (or many rows) of
straight stitches.
3
Pull the lower threads to gather the
material.
Appliqués
You can create an appliqué by cutting a different piece
of fabric into a shape and applying it as a decoration.
1
Baste the cut design to the fabric.
2
Carefully sew around the edge of the
design with a zigzag stitch.
Make sure the needle does not hit the
zipper during sewing. If the needle hits
the zipper, the needle may break and
you may be injured.
