k Adjust the stitch width until the needle slightly catches
the fold of the hem. (page 29)
When you change the needle drop point, raise the
needle, and then change the stitch width.

Memo
• Blind hem stitches cannot be sewn if the left needle
drop point does not catch the fold. If the needle catches
too much of the fold, the fabric cannot be unfolded and
the seam appearing on the right side of the fabric will be
very large, leaving an unattractive finish.
Sew with the fold of the hem against the presser foot
l
guide.
m Press the "Start/Stop" button to stop sewing when you
are finished, and raise the presser foot and needle to
pull the fabric under the presser foot towards the back
of the machine.
Note
• Be sure to pull the fabric towards the back of the
machine after sewing. If you pull the fabric toward side
or forward, the presser foot may be damaged.
n Remove the basting stitching and turn the fabric with
the right side facing out.
