Smocking is a delicate decorative treatment used on
children's clothes or women's blouses.
Choose a soft and lightweight fabric such as batiste,
gingham or challis. Cut the fabric three times wider than
the projected width. Set stitch length at "4" and sew rows
of straight stitches 318" (1.0 cm) apart across the area to
be smocked.
Knot the threads along the edge. Pull the bobbin threads
to distribute the gathers evenly and secure the threads.
Sew the decorative stitches of your choice between the
gathered rows. Remove the gathering stitches.
NOTE:
Loosen the needle thread tension to make gathering
easier.
