Sewing on lace and elastic, darning,
mending, reinforcing edges.
1. Place patch in position. The stitch length
can be shortened to produce very close
stitches.
2. When mending tears, it is advisable to use
a piece of backing fabric to reinforce. The
stitch density can be varied by adjusting
the stitch length. First sew over the centre
and then overlap on both sides.
Depending on the type of fabric and
damage, sew between 3 and 5 rows.
