Fold under 1.5 cm (1/2˝) on each fabric edge and
press. Pin the two edges to a piece of paper 0.3 cm
(1/8˝) apart.
Sew guiding the fabric so the needle catches the
folded edge on each side.
Peel off the paper from fabrics.
Smocking is a delicate, decorative treatment on
children’s clothing or women’s blouses. Choose a soft,
lightweight fabric such as batiste, gingham or challis.
Cut the fabric three times the finished width.
1. Set needle thread tension to 2.5. Use the straight
stitch with the stitch length at 4.0.
2. Sew rows of straight stitches about 13 mm (1/2˝)
q apart, across the area to be smocked.
3. Tie the threads along one edge. Pull the bobbin
threads to gather the fabric and make the gathers
even. Tie the threads at the other end.
4. Turn the stitch selection knob to decorative stitch.
Set needle thread tension to 3.0.
5. Sew the decorative stitch between the straight
stitching lines.
6. Pull out straight stitching lines.
