For easy shirring and gathering on lightweight to medium fabrics using the overlock or chain stitch settings on your serger.
- The Shirring Foot has an additional groove on the underside of the foot for gathering.
- The raised markings on the toe of the foot are seam line guides. They indicate the needle positions to help guide your fabric for accurate seaming.
- Replace the General-Purpose Foot with the Shirring Foot. See Machine Instruction and Reference Manual for assistance in removing and replacing the snap-on feet.
- Increase the stitch length. A stitch length of 4 is the recommended setting.
- Increase the differential feed by moving the lever towards the number 2. The higher the differential feed the more the fabric will gather.
- For best results place fabric to be gathered right side up under the presser foot and past the grove on the underside of the foot.
- Place the fabric up to the needles. Turn the handwheel 3-4 turns to catch the fabric with the needles.
- Can also be used with chain stitch.
- The foot has tape sewing slots on the front to easily guide narrow ribbons, elastics and tapes.
