4. Notkunarleiðbeiningar

The gathering shirring foot allows you to create gathers on a single layer of fabric or gather one layer while attaching it to a flat layer simultaneously.

4.1 Gathering a Single Layer of Fabric

1. Undirbúa efni: Place the fabric you wish to gather under the foot, right side up.
2. Adjust Stitch Settings:
   • Saumagerð: Straight stitch.
   • Saumalengd: Set to a longer stitch length (e.g., 4.0 to 5.0). A longer stitch length will create more gathers.
   • Spenna: Increase the upper thread tension slightly (e.g., to 6 or 7). Higher tension will result in more pronounced gathers.
3. Byrjaðu að sauma: Start sewing at a moderate speed. The foot will automatically gather the fabric as it feeds through.
4. Test on Scrap Fabric: Always test your settings on a scrap piece of the same fabric to achieve the desired gathering density before working on your main project.

4.2 Gathering One Layer While Attaching to a Flat Layer

This technique is useful for attaching a gathered ruffle to a flat bodice or skirt panel.

1. Undirbúa dúkur: Settu íbúð fabric (the one not to be gathered) under the foot, right side up.
2. Position Gathered Fabric: Settu fabric to be gathered on top of the flat fabric, right side down, aligning the raw edges. The fabric to be gathered should be positioned so its edge slides into the slot in front of the needle, while the flat fabric remains under the main part of the foot.
3. Adjust Stitch Settings: Use the same stitch length and tension settings as for gathering a single layer (longer stitch length, increased upper tension).
4. Byrjaðu að sauma: Sew slowly and steadily. The foot will gather the top layer while simultaneously stitching it to the flat bottom layer.
