test first._____________________________________________

Fold the fabric as illustrated with the wrong side uppermost

(1).
Place the fabric under the foot. Turn the handwheel forwards
by hand until the needle swings fully to the left. It should just
pierce the fold of the fabric. If it does not, adjust the stitch width

accordingly (2).
Sew slowly, guiding the fabric carefully.
