And, if you need to do straight stitching in the middle of your project, just flip the lever and you can... even while the attachment is still on your machine! Applique' ~ This was ALL accomplished using the Automatic ZigZagger on my Featherweight. It is not as fast as a zigzag head machine, but it is possible and the result was very satisfying! The key, like any applique', is to stabilize the piece to be applied to the fabric first. Having that done eases any stress of it shifting during the zigzag process. Slowly and carefully I stitched around each tulip and each leaf - making sure that I left the needle in the fabric on the outside curve as I lifted the presser foot to ease around the curve. Do a few stitches... lift, turn, do a few more stitches, lift and turn. Once I had my rhythm, it was surprisingly smooth and beautifully accomplished. Won't you impress your friends at the next quilt class with this! (Practice first, of course!) The appliqued skirt turned out beautifully for Easter Sunday. It was a fun afternoon at Grandma's house in the country - I could not resist the photography. I turned the fabric so you could see the stitches in the back. This Singer Fashion Aid provides an infinite variety of attractive ornamental designs merely through the interchange of the different Stitch Patterns and the adjustment of the bight and stitch length. Such decorative effects as applique', scalloped edges, border designs, as well as blind-stitched hems and simple mending can be produced with this attachment.

Dear Friends of the Needle, ....We are friends because we all know one thing in common, that is, the joy of the needle, that little one-eyed help-meet, that will act as a vent for all those artistic feelings that demand outlet and expression in the form of making and doing things. What a big family we are, all wielders of the little sewing needle, the knitting needle, the crochet hook and the machine needle in its multiplicity of forms, from the very fine one that will sew the gossamer frock of the little girl’s fancy dress, to the heirloom quilt, to the sturdy member that sews our leather gloves and shoes. Truly, they are one-eyed helpmeets that have added to our comforts and helped us to make progress through this busy world. But if the machine needles had not been harnessed to good reliable instruments, so that they could work in the quickest and neatest way, they could not have done so much good, and that is why we, as needle workers, are grateful to the age-old Sewing Machine Companies for giving us that vintage instrument and in turn, giving it a beautiful setting with which to work. We also have to be thankful for the vintage service of instruction, so that even those with basic knowledge can be taught how to make the most of their machine and its wonderful attachments. Now you have the privilege of purchasing vintage books and instruction on how to make, mend and design, with professional tips, all of which would cost a large sum if you took lessons in the ordinary way. Here you have the written word that remains, as well as illustrations and diagrams making every point clear. It is my privilege to impart some of that knowledge to you and it is a joy to know from your letters that it has helped women in some of the loneliest corners of the world. The word “Sewing†and all it conveys is beyond description in this limited space. My special message to you is - be a Singer Sewer and your troubles are o'er. You can have pretty, smart frocks, dainty underwear, house-linen, and little Jack and Mary can be well and comfortably dressed without encroaching too much on the family exchequer. If you want any information on machines or obtaining service for your machine, please write to me through my page and I will assist you. In the meantime, I am going forth to continue the good work of gratifying more friends of theneedle. As Always - Your Stitchery Friend, April I look forward to becoming Your Stitchery Friend...
