INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
THE ATTACHMENTS
FOOT HEMMER - Hemming
Raise the needle to its highest point. Remove the presser foot and attach the toot hemmer in its place (see Fig. 21). Clip off the right hand corner of the cloth, so that it will take the roll easily, turn up the edge about a quar- ter of an inch, insert it in the mouth of the hemmer and draw or push it along with the stiletto until under the needle. Then let down the presser bar and after taking two or three stitches, draw gently on the ends of the threads to help the work along till the feed catches it. In order to produce a smooth even hem the mouth of the hemmer must be kept just full.
Fig 21.
Fig. 21 shows also what is known as a bag seam or fell, made by passing two pieces of fabric through the hemmer together and hem- ming them down.
