the entangled thread, and then raise the
presser foot lever to remove the presser foot. If
the presser foot is raised while entangled with
thread, the presser foot may be damaged.

You can make beautiful quilts quickly and easily with this
machine. When making a quilt, you will find it convenient to
use the knee lifter and foot controller to free your hands for
other tasks ("Using the Foot Controller" on page 51, "Using
Advanced Multi-Function Foot Controller (Included with
Some Models)" on page 51 and /or "Using the Knee Lifter" on
page 62)
The 40 quilting stitches Q-01 through Q-40, stitches S-02
through S-04 and the utility stitches with "P" or "Q" indicated
on their key are useful for quilting.
The "P" or "Q" at the bottom of the key display indicates that
these stitches are intended for ("Q") quilting and ("P") piecing.

Memo
• When a stitch pattern in the quilting stitches
category (only quilting stitches marked with "Q") is
selected, a finer stitch width can be set than that
available with stitch patterns in other categories.
• For details on stitch patterns, refer to "STITCH
SETTING CHART" on page 197.
Sewing two pieces of fabric together is called piecing.
When cutting pieces for quilt blocks, make sure the seam
allowance is 6.5 mm (approx. 1/4 inch).
