NOTE:
Loosen the needle thread tension to make gathering easier.
Smocking is a delicate decorative treatment used on
children's clothes or women's blouses.
Choose a soft and lightweight fabric such as batiste,
gingham or challis. Cut the fabric three times wider than
the projected width. Set stitch length at "4" and sew rows of
straight stitches 3/8" (1.0 cm) apart across the area to
be smocked.
Knot the threads along one edge _2_. From the other
edge, pull the bobbin threads (bottom threads) to
distribute the gathers evenly and secure the threads.
Sew the smocking stitches between the gathered rows.
Remove the straight stitches by pulling them out.
