Basting embroidery
Before embroidering, basting stitches can be embroidered
along the outline of the pattern. This is useful for
embroidering fabric that cannot have stabilizer material
affixed with an iron or adhesive. By stitching stabilizer
material to the fabric, shrinkage of the stitching or misaligned
patterns can be minimized.

FUNCTIONS
Note
• It is recommended to finish combining and editing
the pattern before selecting the basting setting. If
the pattern is edited after selecting the basting
setting, the basting and pattern may become
misaligned, and the basting under the pattern may
be difficult to remove after embroidering is
complete.
Memo
• The higher the setting, the farther the basting is
from the pattern.
• The setting remains selected even if the machine is
turned off.
Note
• When
is touched, the pattern is moved to the
center. After selecting the basting setting, move the
pattern to the desired position.
