Use
the
twin
needle
to
sew
a
decorative
topstitched
hem.
The
hem
is
sewn,
the
edge
is
finished
and
a
decorative
effect
is
achieved
on
the
right
side
of
the
fabric in
one
operation.
Use
twin
needles
with
a
minimum
needle
spacing
of
4
mm
(size
4.0/90).
Fold
and
press
up
the
hem
along
the
hemline.
Pin
in place
if
desired.
Attach
the
Edge
Guide
to
the
machine
by
sliding
into
the
hole
at
the
back
of
the
presser
foot
holder
A.
From
the
right
side
of
the
fabric,
position
the
edge
guide
so
the
twin
needles
are
positioned
to
the
right
and
left
of
the
raw
edge.
The
bobbin
thread
forms a
zigzag
to enclose
the
raw
edge
on
the
back
as
the
hem
is
sewn.
TIP:
Due
to
the
their
high
stretch
cross-hem
stitch
13
and
stretch
triple
zigzag
stitch
14
are
most
suited
for
decorative
hems
as
used
on
T-shirts
and
lingerie.
Belt
loops
Determine
how
many
belt
loops
you
would
like
on
your
garment.
The
finished
loops
should be
1
cm
(3/8’)
longer
than
the
waistband
width.
Measure
the
waistband
width,
add
1
cm
(3/8”)
ease
and
a
2.5
cm
(1”)
seam
allowance.
Multiply
this
measure
by
the
number
of
required
belt
loops
to
determine
the
length
of
the
fabric
strip.
The
width
of
the
strip
should be
twice
the
finished
belt
loop
width
plus
seam
allowance.
Cut
a
fabric
strip
to the
above
measurements.
Fold
the
strip
in
half
lengthwise,
right
sides
together
and
stitch
along
the
seamline.
Trim
the
seam
allowance
and
press
open.
Turn
the
long
loop
right
side
out
and
press
with
seam
allowance
centered.
Topstitch
close
to
both edges
of
the
strip.
Cut
the
strip
into
the
required
number
of
loops
of
equal
length.
If the
loops
are
to be
sewn
into
the
bottom
waistband
edge,
pin
in place
prior to
attaching
the
bottom
edge
of the
waistband
to
the
garment.
If the
loops are
to
be
sewn
to
the
bottom
waistband
edge
after
the
waistband
is
attached,
fold
under 6
mm
(1/4”)
and
topstitch or
bartack
in
place.
For
the
top
end
of the
belt
loop,
you
may
choose
to
fold
under
6
mm
(1/4”)
and
topstitch
or
bartack to
the
top
edge
of
the
waistband.
You
can
also add
belt
loops
to
finished
garments.
TIP:
Bartack 60
is
most
suited
for
securing
belt
loops
