Embroidering with the Border
Embroidery Frame
Since the fabric can easily be repositioned and
rehooped if the border embroidery frame is used, this
frame is useful for embroidering repeated patterns while
sliding the fabric. An added feature of this frame is that
the pressure applied by the upper and lower frames
does not leave an indentation in the fabric. An area of
10 cm × 18 cm can be embroidered.
CAUTION
• Do not leave the border embroidery frame within
the reach of children, otherwise injuries may result.
Note
• When the border embroidery frame is not being
used, unlock it before storing it.
■ Sample Projects Using the Border
Embroidery Frame
We recommend using the border embroidery frame
when embroidery repeated patterns at the edges of
items such as curtains, chair covers, bed covers,
tablecloths and blankets.

■ Selecting a Pattern

For this example, we will select an embroidery pattern
available on the CD-ROM.

• Since it may take some time to recall a pattern from
the CD-ROM directly to the sewing machine, copy
the pattern from the CD-ROM to the computer,
transfer it to USB media or a removable disk, and
then recall it from the sewing machine.
