Use the Join and Fold Edging foot together with different types of edging such as lace combined with decorative stitches to create beautiful projects.

Make lingerie in a snap, add lace to create beautiful handkerchiefs or delicate table toppers. This foot guides the edging and the base fabric through the openings in the front of the foot, folds the base fabric, and simultaneously sews the edging down.

• Thread your sewing machine with regular sewing or decorative thread through the needle and regular sewing thread in the bobbin.
• Select the stitch you would like to use. For example: the edging could be sewn onto the base fabric using a straight stitch and a 4mm twin needle or a right justified wide decorative stitch. Note: Decorative stitches that use forward motion work best. (Avoid
  stitches with too much backward motion.)
• Fold a ¼” (6mm) hem of base fabric to the wrong side, then finger press or iron.
• Insert the folded edge of base fabric with the right side up into the left fabric guide, and the edging (right side up) into the right guide. Slide the folded fabric edge and the edging into the foot, prior to attaching the foot onto the sewing machine.
• Make sure the base fabric and the edging slide easily through the openings.
• Snap on the Join and Fold Edging Foot to the sewing machine.
• Sew carefully, not too fast. If your machine has speed control, reduce the sewing speed to easily guide the fabric and edging as you sew. Hold the fabric in your left hand and the edging in your right hand and sew.
