Les points extensible sont utilisés surtout sur les tricots et les tissus extensibles, mais peuvent tout aussi bien êtres utilisées sur des tissus tissés.

STRAIGHT STRETCH STITCH

Straight stretch stitch is far stronger than an ordinary straight stitch because it locks three times - forwards, backwards and forwards. It is particularly suitable for reinforcing the seams of sportswear in stretch and non- stretch fabrics, and for curved seams which take a lot of strain. Use this stitch also to top-stitch lapels, collars and cuffs to give a professional finish to your garments.

POINT DROIT EXTENSIBLE

Ce point est beaucoup plus solide que le point ordinaire, vu qu’il s’exécute en trois fois, une fois en avant, une fois en arrière et encore une fois en avant. Il est particulièrement utile pour renforcer les coutures sur les tissus de sport extensible ou non, et pour les coutures en courbes qui demandent beaucoup de force.

HONEYCOMB STITCH

The honeycomb stitch is ideal for smocking and useful for overcasting and attaching elastic and stretch lace.

1.For smocking, first make several rows of gathers across the fabric that you wish to smock.

2.Cut an underlay fabric (such as organdy) and place it under the shirring.

3.Sew the honeycomb stitch over the gathered rows, securing them in place.

POINT NID D’ABEILLE

Le point nid d’abeille est idéal pour la couture de smocks et utile pour surfiler et coudre de la dentelle élastique et extensible.

1.Pour la couture de smocks, débuter en cousant plusieurs rangs de fronce sur le tissu sur lequel vous voulez faire du smock.

2.Coupez une pièce de tissus d’entoilage

(comme un organdi) et placez-le sous la section froncée.

3.Coudre plusieurs rangs de points nids d’abeilles sur les fronces pour les tenir en place.

AJUSTES : Pie prensatelas - Pie universal : Control tensión hilo - 5

PUNTADA RECTA TRIPLE

La puntada recta triple es mucho más fuerte que la puntada recta corriente, ya que entrelaza tres veces–hacia adelante, hacia atrás y hacia adelante. Es particularmente adecuada para reforzar las costuras de prendas deportivas de tejidos elásticos y no elásticos y para costuras curvas que requieren una gran resistencia.

Utilizar también esta puntada para sobrecoser solapas redondeadas, cuellos y puños, ya que proporciona un acabado profesional a las prendas.

PUNTADA PANAL

La puntada panal es ideal para adornar con nido de abeja y es útil para sobrehilado y colocar cintas elásticas.

1.Para esta puntada, primero realice varias líneas de fruncidos a través de la tela que desea adornar con la puntada de panal.

2.Corte una tela como cubierta (como un organdí) y colóquelo por abajo.

3.Cosa la Puntada Panal sobre las líneas fruncidas, asegurándolas en su lugar.
