Stitching Seam
Procedure
1. Make a test sample before beginning gar
ment construction to test machine settings.
(See page 21 for adjusting stitch balance.)
Be sure to duplicate the cut of the garment
seam in your test, and use a ball-point
Yellow Band needle if you are sewing a syn
thetic knit fabric.
• Baste the garment together on the seam
line
allowing
for
5/8-inch
seam
allowance and fit in usual way.
• After making any necessary adjustments,
trim seam edge evenly to a scant 1/4-
inch from seam line basting.
• Place trimmed seam under the foot so
that the straight stitches fall on the
basted seam line and zig-zag stitches fall
over the seam edge.
