PLAIN SEAMS—BACK STITCHING
£2(>0&B
Fig. 89. Seaming Dress Sections
Plain Seams comprise a large part of general sewing.
Seam ends are stayed with back stitching to prevent
their opening during fitting and assembling the gar
ment. Position needle a few stitches from the edge
of the garment. Hold threads which have been drawn
to the back and right under presser foot. Stitch in
reverse to the edge and then forward until end of
seam is reached. Back stitch again to stay end of
seam.
The All-purpose Presser Foot and All-purpose
Throat Plate are frequently used for both zigzag
stitching and straight stitching and must be used
when straight stitching in other than central needle
position.
The scoring on the throat plate of your SINGER
Swing-Needle makes it easy to guide your stitching
an exact distance from an edge. The cross line
markings indicate the point at which to pivot in
seaming a square corner for each seam width.
