ELASTIC | APPLICATION |
|
|
|

|
| I | ||||||||||
Applying elastic | to | lingerie | or | soft knit fabrics is | ||||||||||||||||
easy when | using | the | multiple | stitch | zigzag. | Cut | ||||||||||||||
the | elastic | 2 | inches |
| smaller |
| than | your | waist | |||||||||||
measurement. | Overlap | the | raw ends | to | form a | |||||||||||||||
circle and | stitch | with | a | tiny | zigzag to | form | a | box | ||||||||||||
as shown. | Fold | the | elastic | into | quarters or eighths | |||||||||||||||
and mark with pins. Do the same with | the | waist | ||||||||||||||||||
line | of | the |
| garment. | Place | the | elastic | about | 1/2 | |||||||||||
inch | from |
| the | top | edge of | the | fabric, | matching | ||||||||||||
the | pins. Place |
| under | the | presser | foot | and | begin | ||||||||||||
stitching. | As you stitch, | place | the forefinger of | |||||||||||||||||
each hand | on |
| the | fabric | at | either | side |
| of | the | ||||||||||
presser | foot. Pull | the | fabric | out | exactly |
| at | the | ||||||||||||
point where the | needle | is | sewing | over the | elastic | |||||||||||||||
and | the fabric. |
| This | will | ease | your |
| fabric | and | |||||||||||
elastic | together | as | you | sew. The amount of ease | ||||||||||||||||
is dependent on | how much you ease the | fabric. | ||||||||||||||||||
In this way you | never | need to | stretch the | elastic, | ||||||||||||||||
which | can | be |
| damaged | and |
| stretched | out of | ||||||||||||
shape. | Trim off | excess fabric | above | elastic | near | |||||||||||||||
the | stitches. |
