Smocking is a delicate, decorative treatment on
children's clothes or women's blouses.
Choose a soft, lightweight fabric such as batiste,
gingham or challis. Cut the fabric three times the
projected width. Set the stitch length at 4.0 and sew
straight lines 3/8"(1cm) apart across the area to be
smocked. A looser needle thread tension will make
gathering easier.
Knot the threads along one edge. From the other
end, pull the bobbin threads to distribute the gathers
evenly. Secure the threads at the other end.
Sew the smocking stitches between the straight
seams.
Remove the straight stitches by pulling them out.

Use this stitch to join two pieces of fabric to create an
open work appearance and add design interest.
Fold under each fabric edge 5/8" (1.5 cm) and press.
Pin the two edges to paper or tear away backing 1/8"
apart.
Sew slowly, guiding the fabric so the needle catches
the folded edge on each side.
After finishing the sewing, take off the paper.
