Decorative stitching
Your sowing machine has several
stitches which are purely decorative.
These versatile stitches allow you to
add imagination and creativity to
your sewing projects. With these
decorative stitches, you can apply to
clothes
and household items:
interesting details, youthful and
feminine accents, and personalized
effects. Some of the many applica­
tions of the decorative stitches
include border designs, appliques,
twin-needle stitching, finished hems,
smocking, embroidering, monograms
and topstitching accent lines on
clothes. The following pages illus­
trate decorative stitches on your
machine and provide examples for
their creative use.
Border Design
Border designs that add a decorative
touch to wearing apparel and
household items can be created by
combining different types of straight
stitching
and zig-zag stitching.
Simple or elaborate, delicate or
bold, they can be varied to suit tlic
application. Use them as you would
a braid or to simulate horizontal,
vertical or bias stripes on plain
fabric.
Procedure
Mark or crease fabric for the centre
line of first row of stitching. If
spacing between rows is not greater
than 1.3 cm (1/2 inch), gauge
additional rows with the presser
foot. If spacing is wider, mark for
each line of stitching. Use a backing
of crisp lawn, organdy or a fusible
interfacing. Be sure to make a te.st
sample on a swatch of your fabric to
check stitch settings and thread
tension, being sure to duplicate
thickness and interfacing or backing
if appropriate.
