I was frustrated with elastic thread because it won't gathered.. it looks like a plain stitch. I thought I did something wrong as there are thousands of tutorials for elastic thread - even our fellow malaysian crafter made a tutorial for it - said that it's a easy peasy thing to do. Little that I know, there's a bobbin tension that needs to be tighten for Brothers sewing machine. I found the great info through a fab tutorial from Cretiveheart... I L.O.V.E the outcome!
If you encountered similar problem - usually found on Brothers sewing machine, just give it a try. It'll blew your mind away! :D

I have been having the same problem with my Brother! Thank you so much for linking to how to do it. I'm glad my elastic thread won't go to waste.
Hey thanks SOOOOO Much for the link to the tutorial on Shirring with a Brother. That has to be the most helpful information on Sewing I've found to day. Thanks again!!!
Thanks I finally got it to work on thin fabrics. But do you know a way to shirr on thicker fabrics?
THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH! I was about to give up! I turned the screw twice and it is perfect. If you want to add more of a ruffle you can also steam it with an iron :) Thanks!
