French Seams

fabrics where raw seam edges must be concealed.

Move lug A to the left to position stitching 1/8" from the edge.●
Stitch and press.●
Fold with right sides of fabric together and insert into slot 1.●
Move lug A to extreme left, allowing just enough margin to conceal raw
edges.

Stitch.●
Tucking
Dainty tucks from "pin" width to ¼" may
be produced with the edge-stitcher.
Tucks are usually made on the
lengthwise grain of the fabric.
Draw a single thread from the
fabric, or measure from the
selvage to locate the first tuck on
the straight of the fabric grain.
