There are two feed dogs: one front
and one rear. The two feed dogs
move independently and the
distance each feed dog travels
during one complete movement can
be adjusted.
Stretching effect
To stretch the fabric select a number

closely woven fabrics from

a single layer of fabric. For example
sleeve heads, yokes, lace edging
or frills.
