Outside Corner
O
PTION I
• Serge one edge of the fabric, stitching off the end of the
fabric. Trim the thread tail.
• Continue serging around the square, crossing over previous
stitching.
• Use a seam sealant on the untrimmed thread tails (or use a
tapestry needle to weave the thread tail back through the stitching).
When the seam sealant is dry, trim the thread tails.
OPTION II
• Beginning at one corner, serge (trimming very slightly as you sew)
to the end of the fabric. Take one stitch off the end of the fabric.
• Locate the Stitch Selection lever on the stitch plate and pull it
toward you. This will free the thread from the stitch finger.
• Lift the presser foot and carefully pivot the fabric 90° FRXQWHUclockwise.
• Return the Stitch Selection
lever to normal (away
from you).
• Place the needle one
stitch into the fabric and
lower the presser foot.
• Continue serging until
you are one stitch off the
next corner.
• Repeat the corner turning
procedure and continue
serging.
