Seam guides
Turning a square corner
The cornering guide helps you maintain a 5/8” (1.6 cm)
seam allowance when sewing a corner.
When the fabric edge facing you lines up with the cornering
guide as illustrated, stop stitching and lower the needle
into the fabric by turning the handwheel toward you.
Raise the presser foot and pivot the fabric so the edge of
the fabric will align with the 5/8” (1.6 cm) seam guide.
Lower the presser foot and start stitching in the new
direction.
