Basting
is
a
useful
method
of
transferring
seam
lines onto
the
fabric.
First
mark
all
contours
with
tailoring
chalk
on
the
top
material
ply.
Sew
along
the
marked
lines
with
the
fringe
foot.
When
all
lines
have
been
basted,
pull
the
two
I
fabric
plies
apart
to
find
the
joining
threads
and
cut
these
through
carefully,
to
avoid
damage
to
the
material.

For
trying
on
a garment,
we
recommend
securing
the
parts
previously
with
basting
stitches.
Place
the
workpiece
under the
sewing
foot.
Sew
one
stitch.
After
that,
pull the
material
by
the
required
stitch length
to
the
rear.
Repeat
this
procedure
until
basting is
completed.
In
order to
avoid
shift
ing
of
the
material
plies
during
securing
of
pat
terned
materials,
insert
dress
pins
crosswise
to
the
basting
direction.
Shifting
of
the
material
plies
is thus
largely
avoided.
