EMBROIDERING A PATTERN
Memo
• If you want to get more attractive finishes, try the
procedures below;
- After 5-6 stitches, press the "Start/Stop" button
again to stop the machine.
- Trim the excess thread at the beginning of the
pattern. If the excess thread tail is under the
embroidery foot, raise the embroidery foot, then
trim the excess thread.
• If there is thread left over from the beginning of
embroidering, it may be embroidered over as you
continue embroidering the pattern, making it very
difficult to deal with the thread after the pattern is
finished. Trim the threads at the beginning of each
thread change.
d
Remove the upper thread for the first color from the
machine. Thread the machine with the next color.
e
Repeat the same steps for embroidering the remaining
colors.

Memo
• The thread trimming function is originally set to trim
excess thread jumps (threads linking parts of the
pattern, etc.). Depending on the type of thread and
fabric that are used, an end of upper thread may
remain on the surface of the fabric at the beginning
of the stitching. After embroidering is finished, cut
off this excess thread.
If the setting has been turned off, trim the excess
thread jumps using scissors after the pattern is
finished. Refer to page 146 for information on the
thread trimming function.
