Video: Attaching Lace While Gathering With The Ultimate Ruffler

275-attaching-lace-while-gathering-with-ultimate-ruffler-videoYour fabric is ruffled but the lace is attached flat.

We've highlighted the Ultimate Ruffler here before. It's an attachment that looks complex as it's doing its work, but it's actually easy to use. To learn how to use it make ruffles and pleats watch the video.

You can also use the Ultimate Ruffler to attach lace while ruffling. The fabric gets a gather and the lace is attached flat--all with one stitch.

Attaching Lace While Using The Ultimate Ruffler

  1. The ruffler foot snaps onto your machine with the black plastic arm going over the needle screw.
  2. Choose a straight stitch.
  3. You'll first want to select the distance between your gathers. The selection lever on the ruffler foot lets you control how many stitches between each ruffle. The first slot is every stitch. The next is every 6 stitches. The 12 slot is every 12 stitches. Be sure to sew a test strip to make sure this will work for your project.
  4. Then you want to adjust the depth of your gathers. You do this by turning the adjustment screw. Again, test your settings on a scrap.
  5. Now, to attach lace while gathering: feed the fabric you want gathered under the metal bar.
  6. Feed your lace over the top of the bar.
  7. Begin sewing. Your fabric is gathered but your attached lace is not.
