Fabric handling, when sewing tubular

and trard to reach garment areas, is

simplified when you convert your sew

ing mactrine to free-arm sowing. Some

of the sewing jobs for which you will

find tfre free-arm particularly useful are

shown below. You wilt discover marry

more for yourself.

Preparation

« Fo convert machine to free-arm

sewing, simply lift the extension bed

up and slide the extension bed off the

machine, as illustrated.

« To convert machine back to flat bed

sewing, simply slide extension bed

onto the base of the machine and

snap down into place.

1. Sleeves

Free-arm sewing takes the difficulty

out of topstitching a sleeve. The arm

hole rotates smoothly under the

treedic so that you can place stitching

accurately, ihe extra control afforded

by the free arm is especially helpful

for topstitching flat-felled seams.

2. Bar Tacks

Bar tacks reinforce areas of strain

and can be applied to ready-made

garments, as well as to those sewn at

home. Use the free-arm surface to

avoid fabric bulk around the needle

wherr you apply this detail to pockets,

plackets, and waistlines.

3. Darning and Mending

Knees, elbows and other areas of

wear in children’s clothes such as

sweaters, jackets and shorts become

readily accessible for darning, mend

ing or patching when the free-arm

surface is used. The sewing surface

fits inside the enclosed sleeve and leg

areas, making it unnecessary to open

seams or roll the garment.
