PINTUCKS AND DOUBLE NEEDLES
Fabric: Lightweight cotton, 6” x 4”, starched
Needle: Double (size should correspond to foot)
Thread: All-purpose sewing
Presser Foot: Pintuck Foot #30, #31, #32, or #33 (optional accessories)
• Select the desired presser foot and corresponding double needle:
- Pintuck Foot #30 - 3 groove - 4mm needle
- Pintuck Foot #31 - 5 groove - 3mm needle
- Pintuck Foot #32 - 7 groove - 2mm needle
- Pintuck Foot #33 - 9 groove - 1.6 needle
• Insert the double needle and thread with two different colors.
• Select the straight stitch #1/green - SL 1.75mm-2mm.
• Sew at a slower speed and test the movement of the needle. You want to be sure it doesn’t hit the
presser foot.
• Top tension can be tightened to create more dimension.
• Start sewing in one corner and meander across the fabric.
• Position the previously sewn tuck in the groove of the foot and sew 6 more rows evenly spaced
across the fabric, as desired.
• Trim, press and mount the sample.
