Adjusting Stretch Stitches, Blind hem stitch

13	Adjusting Stretch Stitches
	Réglage pour les points extensibles
	Ajustando las puntadas flexibles

Stretch stitches are stitches with a forward and reverse motion. For best results place a stabilizer under the fabric to assist in proper stitch formation. Always sew a test on a scrap of the fabric that you are using.

Les points extensibles sont des points formés par un mouvement en avant et un mouvement en arrière. Pour de meilleurs résultats, placez sous le tissu un entoillage qui vous aidera à obtenir des points correctement formés. Effectuez toujours une couture d'essai sur un morceau du tissu que vous utilisez.

Las puntadas flexibles son puntadas con un movimiento adelante y atrás. Para mejores resul- tados coloque un estabilizador debajo de la tela para ayudar en una adecuada formación de la puntada. Cosa siempre una prueba en un pedazo de tela que no este utilizando.
