Hemstitching
This
is
a
technique
everyone
recognizes
-
but
previously
it
was
only
embroidered
by
hand.
With
your
Pfaff
creative
2140.
you
can
produce
hemstitching
much
more
quickly
and
easily.
10
special
hemstitches
are
available
in
your
machine
and
by
changing
the
stitch
length
and
width,
you
can
achieve
different
new
effects.
A
wing
needle,
a
special
needle
with a
wide,
wing
like
shank,
is
required
for
hemstitching
work.
When
entering
the
fabric
the
wing
needle
forms
holes
which
are
typical
for
hemstitching.
Hemstitching
will
prove
most
successful
on
relatively
coarse
linen
fabrics
from
which
single
threads
can
be
easily
pulled.
If
you
pull
additional
threads
and
sew
along
the edges
close
to
the
threads
you
have
pulled
out, you
will
achieve
even
more
impressive
hemstitching
effects
as
the
remaining
threads
are
bunched.
A
distinction
is
made
between
various
hemstitching
techniques.
