Pfaff Creative 2140 - Narrow-Edge Foot; Bias Tape Binder; Topstitching with a Narrow Edge; Sewing on Lace

Narrow-edge
foot
This
presser
foot makes
narrow-edge
topstitching
easier.
It
is excellently
suited
to edge-joining
separate
fabric
pieces,
i.e. attaching
lace to
a
finished
fabric
edge.
The
metal
guide
in the
center
of the
foot keeps
the
two
fabrics
separated.
Topstitching
with
a
narrow
edge
For
narrow-edge
topstitching
place
the
center
guide
of the
presser
foot
against
the
fabric
edge.
Move
the
needle
into
the
desired
left-hand
position
and
topstitch.
The
center
guide
allows
for perfect
topstitch
spacing.

Sewing
on lace
Place
the folded/pressed
edge
of your
fabric
to the
left
of
the
center
guide
and
the finished
edge
of
your lace
to the
right
of
the
center
guide.
Both
fabric
and lace
should
be
placed
under
the foot
right
side
up.
The
center
guide
will
keep
the
fabrics
properly
separated
allowing
for more
precise
stitching.

and
sew
catching
the
edge
of
the
fabric
and the
lace.
Adjust
the
width
and
length
of your
zigzag
as
desired.
Binding
with bias
tape
is a
very
easy
method
of giving
fabric
edges
a
smooth
and
neat
appearance.
For
this
you
need
unfolded
bias
tape
about
2.5cm
(1’)
wide.
Remove
the
presser
foot
and
holder.
Attach
the
bias
binder.
Cut the
beginning
of
the bias
tape
at
a
diagonal.
Feed
the
tape
into
the
scroll
of the
binder
and
pull out
to
the back.
•
Adjust
the binder
and/or
the needle
position
so
that
the
needle
pierces
the
fabric
approximately
1-1.5
mm
(1/16”)
from
the
folded
edge
of the bias
tape.
This
can
also
be
achieved
by
changing
the needle
position.
•
Stitch
about
2.5 cm
(1
‘)
along
the
bias
tape.
Insert
the
edge
of the
fabric
to
be
bound
between
the
bias
tape
edges
into
the slot
of the
binder.
The
bias tape
will
enclose
the
raw
edge
automatically
during
sewing.
Tip:
You
can
obtain
an additional
decorative
effect
by
using
a
zigzag
or decorative
stitch.
