THE MULTIPLE SLOT BINDER
Attach Binder to Machine in Place of Presser Foot
The Multiple Slot Binder is designed with
slots
to accom-
modate five different
widths of
commercial binding in addi-
tion
to
the familiar
15/
16
inch bias cut binding
which
can be made
with
the aid
of the Cutting Gauge.
When single fold commer-
·
c ial binding is used
enter in
slot of
same
size.
Commercial Binding
is
al-
ready folded over at
each
edge
toward the center,
slightly more on one
side
than
the other so that
when
they
meet
a
slightly wider
turn appears on
one side.
The
wider side should
be the
lower side when
binding is
entered
in Binder.
Clip binding to
a
decided
point and draw it through the
slot designed for its
width
by
using a
strong
pin. Draw bind-
ing
beyond needle
and stitch
for a few inches to determine
where
stitching is
desired.
The Binder
is
adjustable
sidewise
so that
stitching
can be
made to appear properly close to the edge of
binding.
Adjust Binder to
right
or to left
so
that
stitching
appears
close
to
folded
edge of
binding.

BINDING AND
PIPING
Using commercially folded binding a garment
can
be
piped and bound in one
single stitching.
Two bindings of
contrasting color and different
widths can
be
entered in
their
correct
size slots.
The narrowest
width
should be
entered in
its
slot
first and drawn through
to the needle,
then
the
wider
binding
should
be inserted. Set the attach-
ment
so
the
stitching
is along
the edge
of the narrower
binding giving the
effect
of a
double reversible
binding.
