01/23/2008
DECORATIVE
BRA)S
can
be
made
very
easily
by
following
the
same
procedure
as
decorative
edge,
with
the
exception
that
this
same
style
of stitching
is being
done
on
a
narrow
braid,
cording,
or ribbon
as
wide
as
the
overlock
desired,
2.8
or
5.0
mm,
using
three
thread
overlock
as
explained
on
page
14.
You may
also
choose
to use
three
same
threads,
namely
embroidery
floss,
candle
wicking
and top
stitching
thread
to
give you
a
full-looking
braid.
Metallic
thread
cannot
be used
when
using
three
same
threads
because
it has
a
tendency
to break.
1. Choose
your cord,
braid,
or
ribbon.
A
S
contrasting
color
to
your
thread
gives
a
very
nice
appearance.
2.
You
may
use your
cutter
or
edge
of needle
plate
as a
guide,
making
sure you
do not
cut the
cord,
braid,
or
ribbon.
3.
You
may
also remove
your
cutter
for this
operation
if
desired
and
use
the
edge of
needle
plate
as guide.
4. Carefully
feed
braid
through
your
overlock
sewing,
over
one
edge,
across
over
the
other
edge.
5.
Finished
braid
can
be
sewn
to
other
garments
as
a single
braid
or entwined
with
one
or
two other
braids.
