■ i Sewing
Fabric handling, when sewing tubular and hard to reach gar­
ment areas, is simplified when you convert your sewing
machine to free-arm sewing. Some of the sewing jobs for
which you will find the free arm particularly useful are shown
on this and the following pages. You will discover many more
for yourself.
preparation
To convert to free-arm sewing, simply press down on corner
of Flip (SSew panel on sewing machine with heel of right hand.
applications
Buttons
Sewing buttons on a cuff or neckband is no longer a task
when the freearm surface is used. Cuffs slip around the
sewing surface without being pulled out of shape, so you
can see and handle the stitching area easily.
Button-sewing instruction is given in Chapter 7, page 72.
