This
classic
heirloom
sewing
technique
can
be
easily
duplicated
on
many
types
of
fabric
such
as
light cotton
and
linens.
Undergarments
and
children’s
clothes
are
given
a
nostalgic
touch
by
pintucking.
•
Attach
the
pintuck
foot.
•
Insert
a
twin
needle
on
your
machine
(e.g.
130/705
H-ZWI;
1.6
or 2.0
mm
needle
spacing:
size
80).
• Thread
the
two
needles
(see
page
31).
•
Using
a
water-soluble
marker,
draw
a
placement
line
for
your
first
pintuck.
•
Increase
the
bobbin
thread
tension
by
turning
the
adjusting
screw
of
the
bobbin
case
slightly
to
the
right
(see
chapter
on
“Bobbin
thread
tension”).
This
will
help
form
well-defined
pintucks.
• Sew
your
first
pintuck.
When
you
start
on
the
second
pintuck,
allow
the
first
pintuck
to
run
parallel
in a
groove
in the
foot.
This
will
produce
evenly
spaced
pintucks.

Stitch
length:

Tension:

Tip:
If
you
would
like
to
emphasise
the
pintuck
effect,
you
can
attach
a
pintuck
blade
(special
accessory)
on
the
front
edge
of the
needle
plate.
The
pintuck
blade
pre
shapes
the
fabric
prior
to
sewing
and
produces
a
better-defined
pintuck.
For
thin
fabrics
use
the
pintuck
foot
with
7
grooves
and
the
small
pintuck
blade,
for
heavier
materials
use
the
pintuck
foot
with
5
grooves
and
the
large
pintuck
blade.
Inserting
a
gimp
thread
creates
a
similar
optical
effect
by
making
the
pintuck
appear
even
more
raised.
A
cording
tongue
is
not
used
when
inserting
a
gimp
thread
in
your
pintucks.
• Remove
the
needle
plate.
•
Thread
the
gimp
thread
from
below
through
the
hole
at
the
center
front
of
the
needle
plate.
•
Replace
the
needle
plate.
The
notch
between
the
needle
plate
and
the
sewing
machine
provides
space
for
the
gimp
thread
while
sewing.
Feed
the
gimp
thread
under
the
work
support
so
that
it
does
not
become
knotted
during
sewing.
•
Gently
pull
the
fabric
taut
while
sewing
the
pintucks.
