Smocking is a delicate decorative treatment used on children's
clothes or women's blouses.
Choose a soft and lightweight fabric such as batiste, gingham
or challis. Cut the fabric three times wider than the projected
width. Set stitch length at "4" and sew rows of straight stitches
3/8"(1.0 cm) apart across the area to be smocked.
Knot the threads along the edge. Pull the bobbin threads to
distribute the gathers evenly and secure the threads.
Sew the decorative stitches of your choice between the
gathered rows. Remove the gathering stitches.

Loosen the needle thread tension to make gathering
