DECORATIVE EFFECTS

In addition to normal overlocking, which is fully described in this instruction book, your machine
can also be used for a number of decorative applications such as decorative top stitching, flatlock
seams, pin-tucking or making lengths of decorative braid.
For these techniques, lower the cutter by pushing in the Cutter release knob and turning it all the
way toward you until the cutter snaps into the "down" position.
Decorative top-stitching – using two threads of using three threads (flat seam)
Fold fabric along the line to be top-stitched and sew over the folded edge. Fig. A
Unfold the fabric, pull the ends of the threads to the underside and press flat.
The final appearance can be enhanced by using buttonhole twist or embroidery thread on the lower
looper.
Flat-locked seams – using two threads or using three threads (flat seam)
Place the two pieces of fabric wrong sides together and overlock along the edge. Unfold and press.
By using different colored fabrics and threads, a pleasing "patchwork" effect can be achieved.
Pin-tucking – using three threads
Fold fabric along a line to be pin-tucked and overlock along the folded edge. (See page 58-59) Pull
ends of threads to the underside and presss.
Making decorative braid – using three threads
Overlock over a cord or braid, holding it carefully with both hands. (See pages 58-59)
NOTE:
*If you use the blind hem foot, decorative stitches are easy.
**Reduce the upper looper tension when you use heavy thread.
*** Return cutter to the normal position by pushing the cutter release knob in and turning it
away from you until it snaps into the "up" position.
