Utility stitches and practical sewing
Attaching lace
You can beautify and remodel home
textiles with lace as often as you like.
Here’s how it’s done:
• First serge the cut edges.
• Sew the lace onto the face side of the
fabric up to the À rst corner.
• Fold the corner and sew over it
diagonally.
• Sew the following sides in the same
way.
Inserting lace
You can achieve a beautiful effect by
inserting lace, e.g. on babywear and
children’s clothing.
• First the lace is basted onto the right
side of the fabric.
• Sew on both sides of the lace at a
narrow margin.
• The fabric underneath the lace is cut
down the middle and ironed to the side.
• Sew over both edges of the lace with
a small, dense, zigzag stitch (stitch width
2-4 mm).
• Cut back the extra fabric.
