f
Turn the handwheel toward you
(counterclockwise), and then begin sewing
around the edge of the appliqué, making sure
that the needle drops just outside of the
appliqué.
When sewing around corners, stop the
machine with the needle in the fabric just
outside of the appliqué, raise the presser foot
lever, and then turn the fabric as needed to
change the sewing direction.
Patchwork (crazy quilt)
stitching
a
Fold the edge of the top piece of fabric and
place it over the lower piece.
b
Sew the two pieces of fabric together so the
pattern spans over both pieces.
Quilting
Sandwiching batting between the top and bottom
layers of fabric is called "quilting". Quilts can easily
be sewn using the optional walking foot and the
optional quilting guide.
Note
Thread the needle manually when using the
walking foot, or only attach the walking foot
after threading the needle using the needle
threader.
When sewing with the walking foot, sew at a
speed between slow and medium.
When quilting, use a 90/14 home sewing
machine needle.
The walking foot can only be used with
straight or zigzag stitch patterns. Reverse
stitches cannot be sewn with the walking
foot. Only select straight or zigzag stitch
patterns with reinforcement stitches. For
details, refer to "Stitch Settings" (page 98).
