pocket faces toward you, and then lower the

presser foot lever so that the needle drops 2 mm

(1/16 inch) in front of the pocket opening.

Pass the upper thread down through the hole in

the presser foot.

• When lowering the presser foot, do not push in

the front of the presser foot, otherwise the bar
