A great technique

This is a great gathering technique for thick fabric such as leather or for sensitive fabric like silks. 
All you need is crochet thread.
Set your machine to the widest Zig-Zag stitch and the longest stitch your machine has. 
Line up your crochet thread in the center of your presser foot. 
Then sew!
The biggest thing is to make sure you don't sew the crochet thread.
Pull the crochet to gather!
That's it.
 With this technique it is easier to move the gathers, 
but more difficult to keep them as gathers. 
Just another way to gather fabric! Have a great weekend!
