Baste; Darning And Mending - Husqvarna Viking Eden Rose 250C Limited Edition User Manual

BASTE

Basting is temporary stitching for fi tting garments,
gathering and marking.
The Exclusive SEWING ADVISOR™ feature
automatically sets a long stitch length so the threads are
easy to remove or to pull for gathering.
Place the fabrics right sides together. Put the fabric in
position under the presser foot with 5/8" (15 mm) seam
allowance. Stitch along seam line.
To remove stitching pull the bobbin thread.

DARNING AND MENDING

Darning a small hole or a tear before it becomes larger can
save a garment. Choose a fi ne thread in a color as close to
your garment as possible.
1. Place the fabric in position under the presser foot.
2. Start sewing above the hole and over it.
3. Once over the hole, press the Reverse button. Continue
sewing. The machine sews back and forth across the
hole 14 times and then stops.
4. To repeat the stitch with the same size, press the
STOP button. Reposition your fabric, then step on the
foot control to sew again. The stitch will now repeat
the same size darning square. The machine will stop
automatically when the stitch is completed.
