INSERTING ZIPPERS AND PIPING
Use zipper foot to sew to the right or left of the zipper or to
sew close to the cording.
INSERTING ZIPPERS
To sew down the right side, attach left side of zipper foot to
presser foot holder so that the needle passes through the
opening on the left side of the foot.
To sew down the left side, attach right side of foot to foot
holder.
PIPING
Create a piping by covering a filler cord with a bias strip of fabric.
Attach the right side of the zipper foot to the foot holder so that
the needle passes through the right side of the zipper foot.
Baste the seam allowances together, enclosing the filler cord,
forming seam tape for the piping.
Helpful Hint: Slight adjusting of the needle position to
sew closer to the piping may be accomplished with
the Stitch Width Control.
HAND-LOOK QUILT STITCH

and quilting.
1. Thread bobbin with desired top stitching color. When
sewing the machine will pull this thread to the top.
2. Thread machine with invisible or lightweight thread the color
that matches your fabric. This thread should not show.
3. Increase thread tension a little bit at a time until you

4. Start to sew.
NOTE: For a dramatic appearance, experiment with
different tension and stitch length combinations.
