Janome 200345006 | 3 Way Cording Sewing Foot | Category B
The 3-way cording foot will hold one, two or three fine cords or threads. Because they are attached to the foot, the required design can easily be followed and the cords are perfectly placed.
A variety of utility, or embroidery stitches can be sewn over the cords to couch them onto base fabrics. The choice of cord, thread and stitch are all contributory factors to the final effect. Start with a simple colour palate of a few fresh colours.
Then add your own embellishments in coordinating colours for flair. Thread based embellishments are perfect for placemats where you want to maintain a flat surface. Add distress to pintucks on a coarser fabric for a softer well-loved look and feel. (ANOTHER ATTRACTIVE TECHNIQUE FOR DECORATIVE WORK!) How to use the 3 Cord Cording foot Clip your foot on.
Set your machine to the zigzag stitch. Thread tension 3-6, stitch length 1.5-4 and the width 1-5.
