Darning
NOTE: Free motion darning is accomplished without the
sewing machine internal feed system. Movement of the
fabric is controlled by the operator, best by using an em-
broidery hoop (not included). It is necessary to coordinate
sewing speed and movement of fabric.
First sew around the edges of the hole to secure the

threads. Stitch across the opening moving the hoop
backward and forward under the needle. Overlap the
outline stitching at each end of the area, keeping the
lines of stitching closely spaced and even in length.
When the opening is filled, turn the work and cover
the area with crosswise lines of stitching.
