Elastic stitching
The elastic stitch can be used in 3 ways: mending,
sewing elastic or joining fabric. Each is explained
below.
Select the elastic stitch (14).
Mending
Place the reinforcement fabric under the tear
to be mended, and then sew over the tear.
Sewing elastic tape
Place the elastic tape on the fabric, and then
sew over the elastic tape while holding the
tape both in front and behind the presser foot.
Joining fabric
Put the edges of the two pieces of fabric
together, and then place them under the
presser foot with the fabric edges under the
center of the presser foot.
Then, start sewing the edges of the two
fabrics together.
Memo
Make reinforcing reverse stitches at the
beginning and the end of stitching.
