Utility stitches and practical sewing
Gathering with the straight stitch
Using a straight stitch, you can gather sleeves,
skirts and valances with a stitch length of 6
mm. To ensure consistent gathering you should
sew two or three rows of gathering.
Mark the fi rst line on the right side of the
fabric and sew along it. Allow the threads to
extend approx. 10 – 20 cm.
Each subsequent seam can be sewn one
presser foot width from the last.
Gather the piece of fabric by pulling the
bobbin thread. You determine the amount of
gather by how much you pull the thread.
Finally, the thread ends are knotted to
secure the gather.
Gathering with elastic thread
Sleeve and waist seams can be gathered by
sewing over an elastic thread.
Mark the fi rst gathering seam on the
reverse side of the fabric.
Sew a few stitches using stitch M/F. Leave
the needle in the fabric. The needle must
be in the center of the presser foot. Raise
the presser foot and lay the elastic thread
around the needle.
Lower the presser foot and sew a few
stitches. Then pull the elastic thread evenly
at both ends.
Determine the amount of gather by the
amount you pull the threads.
The gather can also be altered after sewing
by pulling the ends of the elastic threads.
Finally, knot the threads and elastic.
Tip: The cording foot (special accessory) is
particularly suitable for gathering. Due to its
guide grooves the elastic is fed evenly during
the sewing process.
