Satin Or Leaf Stich; Step Stitch - Bernina 570 QE User Manual

My BERNINA Embroidery

Satin or Leaf Stich

The needle moves left to right and vice versa. The result is a very dense, covering zig zag stitching to fill the
shape. Satin stitching fills are ideal for narrow and small shapes. Satin stitching is, however, not suitable for
larger areas, since wide stitches are too loose and do not cover the fabric properly. In addition there is the
risk that with too long stitches the threads could catch on something which would damage the embroidery.

Step Stitch

Many short, equally long stitches are embroidered in offset rows closely next to each other which results in a
densesly filled area.
