How to Gather Fabric - Zig Zag Method

Описание: How to gather fabric using the zigzag method. This is a fast and easy method where you gather using a zigzag stitch over thread.

Gathering fabric is a very useful sewing skill that sewists need to learn when sewing garments. This is a special skill that is necessary when adding ruffles, cuffs, sleeves and many other pieces of a garment.

With this gathering method, a zig-zag stitch is sewn across the lengths of the pulled bobbin and top thread.

When gathering fabric on a sewing machine in this way, the pieces of unsewn thread are then pulled as the fabric is slid along the thread until it gathers.

This zig-zag stitching around the unsewn thread makes for a much stronger gathered fabric. This stitch used for gathering fabric is the strongest method of gathering. It is a very useful way to gather heavy fabrics like denim and wool.
