Tight
- Proper setting of tension is important to good sewing.
- There is no single tension setting appropriate for all the stitch
functions and fabrics.
- 90% of all sewing will be between "3" and "5" ("4" is basic
setting).
- For all decorative sewing you will always obtain a nicer stitch
and less fabric puckering when the upper thread appears on
the bottom side of your fabric.
