SEWING MACHINE WORK
BOOK
1.
Begin with a basted 2" hem as instructed on previous page.
2. Select the Blind Stitch #9.
3. Attach the Blindstitch Sole DM to the machine and
engage the Dual Feed mechanism.
4. Fold the hem back to the right side over the basting
line, exposing the zigzagged edge (or raw edge if not
nished) of the fabric.
5. Turn the handwheel forward by hand until the needle
swings fully to the left.
• Adjust the guide (2) by turning the knob (1) so that
the guide just rests against the fold.
• It should just pierce the fold of the fabric. If it does
not, adjust the stitch width accordingly.
6. Sew on the extended hem allowance, keeping the
folded edge next to the guide on the foot.
7. Unfold the fabric when nished, and notice that the
stitches barely show on the outside of the fabric.
