Gathering Over One Cord
Trim all four edges of sample fabric before beginning.
Select the zigzag stitch and set SW = 2.5mm and SL = 2-2.5mm.
Stitch
5
/8” from one 12” edge; sew over the cord.
Secure the cord at the beginning and then pull it to gather the
sample to 6”.
Notes:
- Gathering over cord adds additional strength, eliminates
thread breakage and allows better control of gathering.
- Drop the feed dog and sew a bartack at the beginning and end
of cord for strength.
- Do not sew through cording.
