A Single Run stitch is a simple forward-moving stitch that
looks like any straight stitch produced by a sewing machine.
•
A Double Run stitch sews over the line twice: once forward,
and once backward, thus it ends up where it starts.
•
The Bean stitch is also known as a Three Ply stitch and is a
running stitch where the machine sews over each stitch
three times (forward, back, forward again) before it moves to
the next stitch. The result is a heavy running stitch.
•
The Motif Run is a decorative, programmed stitch which
usually has an open, 'lacy' look. When you select the Motif
run option, the list of Motif patterns at the bottom of the Run
area in the Properties becomes active. Scroll down the list to
select the Motif you want.
