Itβs direct and I donβt have an over locker.
You could just zig zag over the existing elastic.
using zigzag stitch does the same job . It's tricky to do tho. You need to stretch the elastic while you sew it to the fabric base
Ever met this beastie?
He's an interesting little fella.
yes I have , they scare me lol My mum used all these weird feet for things like shirring and ruffling, I just use plain feet and use hand tailoring methods to do the same thing
I found a manual for it but am still scared. You canβt unpick those results.
I have a gizmo for that but have never tried it. And a super complicated pleater foot that scares me
I used to do it with just a plain foot and stretch the elastic by hand while sewing it on
