Pintucks
Pintucks are narrow stitched folds which are normally sewn on the fabric before cutting out the pieces for
garments or other sewing projects. They are suitable for embellishing or in combination with other heirloom
embroidery techniques. The use of Pintuck Feet can simplify this technique considerably. This technique
reduces the size of the fabric. This means that always enough fabric should be calculated.
