Fabric: Cotton jersey, 5” x 6”
Needle: 80/12 Universal
Thread: 3 cones of serger thread
(yellow, green, blue)
Presser Foot: Coverstitch
Owner’s manual pg.___
• Following the instructions in the manual (page ___), thread the serger for cover stitch
using thread colors to match the color-coded threading path on the serger (use blue
for purple markings).
• Fold up a 2” hem along the 6” edge of the fabric. Glue stick or pin in place.
• Using the markings on the stitch plate as a guide, place the fabric under the needles
with the fold to the right or the presser foot, with the right side of the fabric up and the
hem/wrong side down.
• Coverstitch the hem in place. There is no need to stretch the fabric while stitching, as the
cover stitch has natural stretch.
• Trim and mount the sample.
