Cording
foot
Cording
is
a
technique
in
which
pearl
thread
or a fine
cord
is
overstitched
to
produce a
purl
seam.
With
this you
can
obtain
an
effect
similar
to
braiding.
Appliqués
can
also be
made
more
effective
with
this
seam.
•
Attach
the
cording
foot.
•
Place
the
pearl
thread
in
the foot
so
it leads
through
one
of the
grooves
at the
front
and
lies
under
the
presser
foot
at
the
back.
•
Overstitch
the
pearl
thread
with
a
narrow
satin
stitch.
This
produces
what
is
known
as
the
purl
seam.
Tip:
You
can
also
obtain
a
remarkable
effect
by
overstitch
ing a
medium
pearl
thread
with
a thread
of a
different
color.

placed
right
sdes

edges

Tip:
Tighter
gathers
can
be
achieved by
increasing
the
needle
thread
tension
and
the
stitch
length.
