BINDER

Binding

Remove the presser foot and attach the binder in its place. Pass the binding through the scroll of the hinder and draw it back under the needle. Place the edge of the goods to he bound between the scrolls of the hinder and draw it under the needle. Lower the presser bar and sew as usual. To make French folds proceed as directed for binding except that the fold is stitched on to the face of the material instead of on the edge (see Fig. 27). After loosening the binder set screw and adjusting the binder the line of stitching can be brought nearer the centre, this being more effective when making French folds.

BIAS GAUGE

The bias gauge may be used by placing it on the point of a pair of scissors, as below, and different widths of material may be cut by adjusting the slide (S. Fig. 28,). Bias binding for binder No. 36595 should be cut fifteen-six- teenths of an inch wide if muslin or similar fabrics are used, and to do this the slide (S) should be placed half way between the lines marked "F" and "B." The edge of the goods should be passed through the attachment and against the slide while cutting. When binding with fine, soft or flimsy materials, cut the bias binding a suitable fraction wider.
