Stiching corners on a twin needle without a reverse.

Recommended Posts

I am currently working my way slowlt towars my BPA Parchute Riggers rating, I managed to find a 2nd hand Singer 212G140 but unfortunately it doesn't have a reverse, can anyone out there give me some tips on stiching corners without a reverse?
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

Good news, you don't need reverse. Check out these two threads.

Fortunately, you only need to hand-wheel it backwards 3/4 of a turn.
IOW Stitch to the edge of the fabric, pushing the needle past bottom dead centre, until it catches the bottom thread. The put your hand on the wheel and rotate it backwards until there is a little slack in the top threads.
Turn the fabric. Fold the corner of the tape and resume sewing forwards.
