You can create beautiful trims when you use the Couching/Braiding Foot and your machine‘s decorative stitches to sew over yarn, cords, narrow satin ribbon, soutache braid, etc.

How to use:

1. To attach cords, use matching, invisible or decorative embroidery thread.
2. Insert the cording or tape from the front of the foot into the eyelet-type guide and pull it through the front hole, underneath and to the back of the sewing foot.
3. Engage the IDT™ system (if available on your machine).
4. Select stitch, i.e. zigzag, blind hem or decorative. Sew the design by following the pre-marked design lines. Or, sew random lines and waves for a decorative textured effect.

TIP: Try several smaller cords and yarns, twist them together to create texture and combine colours.

The automatic needle threader cannot be used on Group L machines.
