You can use these stitches to join together seams and finish them in one operation. The Overlock Stitches are also useful for sewing stretch materials while the Arrowhead Stitch is ideal for sewing the edge of a blanket.

Con estos tipos de puntadas es posible unir costuras y terminarlas en una sola operación. Las puntadas overlock también resultan útiles para coser telas elásticas, mientras que la puntada de flecha es idónea para coser los bordes de una manta.

1Setstitch.the pattern selection dial to an overedge

Ajuste el selector de puntadas en la puntada de sobreorilla.

2Put the fabric under the presser foot so that the seamline (or arrowhead point) is approximately 3 mm (1/8 inch) to the left of the center of the presser foot. This stitch works best with a seam allowance of approximately 5 mm (3/16 inch) as this allows the right (zigzag) side of the stitch to overlock the cut edge of the fabric.

Ponga la tela debajo del pie prensatela de forma que la línea de costura (o punta de flecha) esté a unos 3 mm (1/8 pulg.) a la izquierda del centro del pie prensatela. Esta puntada tiene los mejores resultados con un margen de costura de unos 5 mm (3/16 pulg.), puesto que esto permite que el derecho (zig-zag) de la puntada quede por encima del borde de corte de la tela.

3If the seam allowance is wider than the stitch pattern, trim away any excess fabric after stitching.

Si el margen de costura tiene una anchura superior al dibujo de la puntada, corte y quite toda la tela sobrante después de la costura.

Use the Feather Stitch as a decorative top stitch when embroidering or when hemming blankets, tablecloths, or draperies.

La puntada de plumas puede emplearse como costura sobrepuesta decorativa para el bordado o para los dobladillos de mantas, manteles y paños.

1Set the pattern selection dial to the Feather Stitch. Ajuste el selector de puntadas en la puntada de plumas.

2Place the fabric right side up and sew 1 cm (3/8 inch) from the edge of the fabric.

Coloque la tela con el derecho hacia arriba y cosa 1 cm (3/8 pulg.) desde el borde de la tela.

3Trim close to the stitching. Corte cerca de la costura.

The stitch will prevent the fabric from unravelling. La costura impedirá que la tela se deshilache.
