SEWING THE STITCHES

■
Patchwork (Crazy Quilts)
Turn back the desired width of fabric, place it over a
different piece of fabric, and then sew the two fabric
pieces together so the stitching bridges both pieces.
■
Sewing Curves
Shorten the stitch length setting to obtain a fine
stitch. Sew slowly, keeping the seams parallel with
the fabric edge as you guide the fabric around the
curve.
Elastic Zigzag Stitches
Use elastic zigzag stitches for a wide variety of applications, including overcasting, tape attaching, and darning.

needle drops slightly off the edge of the fabric.
