Cross Stitch; Antique Hand Embroidery Stitches - Pfaff creative 2170 Owner's Manual

Twin needle Pintucks
Twin needle Pintucks are created by placing a twin needle in your Pfaff
creative 2170. Mark the fi rst line of stitching with a fade away or wash
away fabric pen. Continue to mark lines or use one of the optional Pfaff
Pintuck feet to easily guide your rows where needed.
• Replace the standard sewing needle with a 2.0 mm twin needle. Set
your creative 2170 for normal Straight Stitch (no. 1), stitch length 2.5
– 3.0, presser foot 2, IDT disengaged.
• Touch the Twin needle icon and set for a 2.0mm twin needle.
• Thread the top and bobbin with thread matching the color of fabric.
Use the extra spool pin for the second top spool. Remember to place
one top thread in one side of the tension disc and the other thread
on the other side of the tension disc.
• Sew along the fi rst line of stitching. Continue until all pintucks are
sewn.
