General notes on decorative sewing

To enhance your own home textiles or garments your
expression offers you a wide variety of fancy and decorative
stitches. Create a greater variety of embellishments by
combining different patterns, colors and sizes. Use specialty
decorative threads to enhance the lovely stitching.
Always use stabilizers under fabric when sewing decorative
stitches. Properly stabilizing your fabric will help eliminate
distortion of your decorative stitches.
The following recommendations apply to all decorative
sewing:
The stitch length and width can be altered as desired.
Lower the upper thread tension to between 2-3. Adjust as
needed so bobbin thread does not pull to the top side of
your project. Your embroidery results will be much prettier
if your tension is properly adjusted.
Presser foot No. 1 (for dual feed) and No. 2 (without dual
feed) are most suitable for decorative work. We recommend
presser foot. No. 2 for heavier fabrics.
Changing the pattern length
The pattern length can be altered using -/+ button B (2). The
length can also be adjusted while sewing.
