Page 23: Straight Stitching
STRAIGHT STITCHING Straight stitch is most frequently used for all types of sewing. Let's begin by following the steps below. 1. SETTINGS Presser foot : General Purpose Foot Thread tension control: (4) NOTE: Based upon the weight of the fabric, slight "fine tuning" of the tension may be desired.
Page 24 Thread bobbin with desired top stitch color. When sewing the machine will pull this thread to the top.
Page 25: Zigzag Stitching
ZIGZAG STITCHING SETTINGS Presser foot : General Purpose Foot Thread tension control: (4) The top thread may appear on the bottom depending on the thread, fabric, type of stitch and sewing speed, but the bobbin thread must never appear on the top of the fabric. If bobbin thread is pulling to the top or you are experiencing puckering, slightly reduce the tension with the Threading tension dial.
Page 26: Blind Hem Stitch
BLINDHEM STITCH The blindhem stitch is primarily used for hemming curtains trousers, skirts,etc. SETTINGS Presser foot : General Purpose Foot Thread tension control: (4) - Regular blind stitch for normal woven fabrics - Elastic blind stitch for soft, stretchable fabrics With matching thread finish the raw edge.
Page 27: Multi-Stitch Zigzag
MULTI-STITCH ZIGZAG SETTINGS Presser foot : General Purpose Foot Thread tension control: (4) This is a strong stitch because as its name implies, it makes three short stitches where the normal zig-zag makes only one For this reason it is highly recommended for overcasting all types of fabrics. It is also ideal for bartacks, mending tears, patching, sewing toweling, and...
Page 28 Stretch stitches are mainly for use on knit, or stretchable fabrics, but alsobe used on woven fabrics. Straight stretch stitch is far stronger than ordinary straight stitch because it locks three times - forwards, backwards and forwards. It is particularly suitable for reinforcing the seams of sportswear in stretch and non-stretch fabrics and for curved seams.
Page 29 This stitch enables it to be used for top stitching, or attaching lace or inset panels when making lingerie. The Blanket stitch is traditionally a hand embroidery stitch used to put bindings on blankets. This multi-purpose stitch can also be used for attaching fringe,attaching edgings, couching, applique and drawn thread hemstitching.
Page 30 Excellent for hemstitching table and bed covers with an elegant touch. Picot-like stitch can also be made on sheer materials. Sew along the raw edge of fabric and trim close to the outside of the stitching.
Page 32 Before starting to sew, check that there is enough thread wound onto the bobbin to ensure that the thread will not run out during sewing.
Page 33 These are the patterns often seen on borders or hems of garments and home decorating projects. Use whichever patterns suit your preference. Position your fabric and button under the presser foot. Lower presser foot. Turn the handwheel to make sure needle clears both left and right openings of the button.
Page 34: Sewing A Buttonhole
SEWING A BUTTONHOLE USING BUTTONHOLE FOOT The size of the buttonhole is automatically set by placing a button in the automatic buttonhole foot(R). The button holder of the foot takes a button size up to 2.5 cm (1") in diameter. Make a test buttonhole on a sample duplicating the fabric interfacing and seams of the actual garment.
Page 35: Corded Buttonholes
When buttonhole sewing is finished, push the buttonhole lever upward as far as it will go. CORDED BUTTONHOLES Hook filler cord (crochet thread or buttonhole twist) over the spur and pull both Spur ends of the cord forward under the foot and tie off the cord as shown in the illustration.
Page 36 After use, keep sewing machine and foot controller clean. Use dry rags to remove dust from the sewing machine and foot controller.
Page 37: Other Information
4. OTHER INFORMATION SATIN STITCH FOOT The Satin stitch foot is grooved to permit dense stitching to pass under it easily. It is most useful for sewing satin stitches and as an alternative to the General Purpose Foot when sewing stretch stitches. Closely spaced zig-zag stitches are called satin stitches.
