Off-the-Edge Scallops
Draw 4 lines about 1½” apart across the width of the fabric. Fold
along each line and press.
Select the Straight Stitch; attach Patchwork Foot #37 to machine.
Sew a ¼” tuck on each of the folds.
Change to Open Embroidery Foot #20 or #20C.
Select the Satin Scallop Stitch. Thread the cord through the hole
in the stitch plate (directly in front of the needle).
Lay the edge of the Stitch N Ditch™ under the previously sewn
tuck, with most of the paper showing beyond the fold of the tuck.
Begin stitching on the paper; cord will be drawn into the scallop
stitching. (The scallop actually forms over the cord.) Continue
stitching, guiding the fabric under the foot so that only 2-3 stitches
at the “V” of the scallop stitch into the fold.
Sew off-the-edge scallops to each of the stitched tucks.
Gently remove Stitch N Ditch™ from completed scallops.
Trim and mount the sample.
Off the Edge Tip:
Stitch N Ditch™ Heirloom
Stabilizer is very thin, crisp,
and easy to tear, which makes
it perfect for off-the-edge
techniques.
