The bridging stitch creates a hemstitching effect. It is often used for
connecting two fi nished fabric edges called bridging.
• Finish the fabric edges and press the seam allowance to the wrong
side.
• Place the fabric under the presser foot with the edges
approximately 1/8 inch (3mm) apart.
• Stitch from the right side of the fabric, making sure that the needle
catches the fabric on the right and left sides.
Crosshem stitch - No 13
This highly elastic stitch is very suitable for decorative hems.
• Fold the hem allowance to the reverse side.
• Stitch the hem from the right side of the fabric. Trim any excess
hem fabric up to the stitching.
Sewing in zippers - stitch no. 1
There are different ways to sew in zippers. Follow the directions
included with your pattern for best results.
For all types of zippers it is important to sew close to the teeth of the
zipper. The zipper foot can be snapped to the presser foot ankle on the
left or right, depending on how you will insert your zipper. Then set
the needle position so that it enters close to the edge of the zipper teeth
by using one of the 19 needle positions available. If the presser foot is
attached on the right side, the needle must only be moved to the right.
If the foot is attached on the left, the needle must only be moved to the
left.
