(D Folded edge

There is a sliding guide screw on the blind hem foot that

allows you to precisely control where the needle pierces

the edge of the fabric fold. Adjust the screw so that at the

leftmost position of the stitch, the needle just pierces the

edge of the fold. If the needle pierces too far left, the

stitches will show on the right side of the fabric. Lower the

presser foot. Sew, guiding the folded edge along the guide

in the foot (7).

Use a lightweight fabric (tricot, for example). Fold the fabric

in bias and stitch on the fold. Allow the needle to just clear

the folded edge to create a shelled edge. You may need to

increase the needle thread tension slightly.

If you sew rows of shell stitches, space the rows at least

5/8" (1.5 cm) apart. You can also sew shell stitches on knits

or soft silky woven fabrics, in any direction.
