SEWING MACHINE HAVING TWO BORDERING GUIDES MOVABLE VERTICALLY AND HORIZONTALLY RESPECTIVELY, FOR APPLYING RIBBON LIKE TRIMMINGS TO A WORK PIECE

摘要

A sewing machine having two bordering guides (11, 16) that are used to apply two different ribbon-like trimmings to a workpiece. The first bordering guide (11) is mounted on a machine bed (2) and oscillatable about a vertical axis spaced apart sideways from the working position located in front of a machine presser foot. The second bordering guide (16) is mounted on the machine bed (2) and oscillatable about a horizontal axis arranged at right angles to a workpiece advancing direction and below the working position. Each of the first and second bordering guides is moved from a rest position to a working position located before the presser foot so that they reach the working position alternately with the other while the stitching operation is being carried out.
