Stitches & sewing techniques
Rolled edge sewing
The rolled edge stitch is appropriate for lightweight fabrics such as lawn, voil, organdy, crepe, etc. The rolled edge is
achieved by adjusting the thread tension to make the fabric edge roll under the fabric while overlocking. Adjust the
thread tension to change the degree of rolling. To sew a rolled edge you need to set the stitch nger lever to R. (See
page 10)
Tip: For a beautiful rolled edge, thread the upper looper with a decorative thread and the needle and lower looper with lightweight
regular thread.
Note: Make a thread chain and test sew on a sample of your fabric before sewing on your garment. Hold the thread chain before
sewing to keep it from curling into the seam.
Note: The minimum overlock stitch width that can be obtained for rolled edging is approximately 1.5 mm.
Sewing hints
Pintuck sewing
Sew decorative pintucks on the fabric before cutting out
the garment. Use overlock right needle and set the ATD
to A for a 3-thread overlock, narrow.
Note: The rolled edge stitch can also be used for this technique.
Disengage the movable upper cutter. (See page 9)
Mark the fabric with the desired number of pintucks
using a water-soluble fabric marker.
Fold the fabric with the wrong sides together and sew.
Press the pintucks in the same direction.
Sew in circles
(only suitable for heavy and medium weight fabrics)
The extension table (optional accessory, part number
416384201) has 13 holes in it, used to sew in circles.
Sew circles with the movable upper cutter engaged (A
position, see page 9) to get a beautiful edge, or disengage
the movable upper cutter (B position, see page 9) and sew
circle embellishments.
Mark a dot in the center of the area that will be the
circle and place stabilizer under the fabric.
Pierce the fabric at the mark with the sharp end of the
push pin (A). Place the pin into the selected
hole on the extension table. Push the pin
and its bottom plate (B) together.
Lower the presser foot and sew. The fabric
will feed in a circle around the push pin.
When the circle is complete, overlap the
seam for a few centimetres (an inch). Thread the
threads into a large eyed, hand sewing needle and pull
them to the wrong side of the fabric and secure.
Securing the thread chain
Thread the chain into a large eyed, hand sewing needle.
Insert the needle into the end of the seam and pull the
chain into the seam to secure the threads.
Sewing with heavy decorative threads in the
loopers
Heavy decorative threads need less thread tension than
regular threads to give the best sewing result. When
threading a heavy decorative thread, place the thread
through the hole in the top cover looper thread guide
and let it pass above the guide as illustrated below. Then
continue threading as described in the threading section.
Note: When using
decorative threads, place
the thread unreeling
disc as shown to
prevent the thread from
getting caught on the
edge of the spool.
Braiding by chaining off
1. Disengage the movable upper cutter. (See page 9)
2. Insert ller cord such as yarn or twill tape through the
hole in the front of the foot.
3. Position the ller cord under the foot and chain off the
desired length.
4. Chained off braids can be used individually or woven
into 3 or 4 ply braids.
