4.5 Fixing Fabric Layers
If several layers of fabric are sewn together, they can be fixed with basting stitches sewn on the sewing
machine or by pins.
NOTICE
Damage to the Knife
Pins placed too close to the fabric edge can be caught by the knife. The needle tips can be sheared off or
the blade of the knife can be damaged.
Position the pins at an adequate distance from the edge of the fabric.
> Place the pins approx. 2cm from the edge of the fabric or remove them continuously while sewing.
