* Presser foot:
Drop the feed dogs, and then remove the foot holder.
Adjust stitch width as desired. Draw a design onto the
fabric with tailor's chalk. Stretch the fabric between
embroidery hoops, and then place the fabric under the
needle.
Lower the presser foot lifter to engage the needle thread
tension. Holding the needle thread in your left hand, rotate
the handwheel counterclockwise for one complete turn.
Pull the needle thread to draw the bobbin thread to the right
(top) side of the fabric. At medium speed, stitch along the
marked outline, guiding the fabric carefully by hand. After
embroidery is completed, raise the feed dogs for normal
sewing.
