Use a lightweight fabric (tricot, for example).
Fold the fabric in bias as shown and stitch on the fold.
Increase the thread tension.
Allow the needle to just clear the folded edge to create a
shelled edge.
If you sew rows of shell stitches, space the rows at least
1.5 cm (5/8") apart. You can also sew shell stitches on
knits or soft silky woven fabrics, in any direction.

Smocking is a delicate decorative treatment used on
children's wears or women's blouses.
Choose a soft and lightweight fabric such as batiste,
gingham or challis. Cut the fabric three times wider than
the projected width.
Reduce the thread tension to "0" and set stitch length at
"5.0" .
Sew rows of straight stitches 1 cm (3/8") apart across the
area to be smocked.
Knot the threads along one edge. From the other edge,
pull the bobbin threads (bottom threads) to distribute the
gathers evenly.
Sew the smocking stitches between the gathered rows.
Remove the straight stitches between the gathered rows.
