Singer 14U 34B - Turning Square Corners

• 3-Thread pin tucking
Pin tucking is a useful decoration when sewing blouses and children’s clothes. Pin tucking is accomplished
before cutting out garment.
• Use ordinary overedge throat plate or rolled hemming throat plate.
• Remove left needle.
• Before sewing on your garment, always make a test stitch on a sample of your fabric so that you can
adjust the thread tensions correctly for standard 1 needle, 3 thread overedge stitching.
• Place movable knife in non-operating position.
• Fold fabric in half with the wrong side facing.
• Place fabric under the foot with the fold resting against the wall of edge guide, (optional parts)
• Adjust edge guide (optional parts) so that the stitches will just overcast the edge of the fold as shown in
the sketch.
• Lower the foot and sew. When stitching is completed, press pin tuck to lay flat on one side.
