Basting embroidery

Before embroidering, basting stitches can be embroidered
along the outline of the pattern. This is useful for
embroidering fabric that cannot have stabilizer material
affixed with an iron or adhesive. By stitching stabilizer
material to the fabric, shrinkage of the stitching or misaligned
patterns can be minimized.
Note
• It is recommended to finish combining and editing
the pattern before selecting the basting setting. If
the pattern is edited after selecting the basting
setting, the basting and pattern may become
misaligned, and the basting under the pattern may
be difficult to remove after embroidering is
complete.
