SEWING AN EMBROIDERY PATTERN
Sewing Attractive Finishes
There are many factors that go into sewing beautiful embroidery. Using the appropriate stabilizer (see
page 197) and hooping the fabric in the frame (see page 199) are two important factors mentioned earlier.
Another important point is the appropriateness of the needle and thread being used. See the explanation
of threads below. Included with this machine are two bobbin cases. Follow the explanation below.
Thread
Upper thread
Use embroidery thread intended for use with this machine.
Other embroidery threads may not yield optimum results.
Bobbin thread
Use embroidery bobbin thread intended for use with this machine.
Memo
• If you use threads other than those listed above, the embroidery may not sew out correctly.
Bobbin case
a
Standard bobbin case
(green marking on the screw)
Alternate bobbin case
(no color on the screw)
Standard bobbin case (green marking on the screw) is in the machine for sewing and embroidery.
The bobbin case originally installed in the machine has a green marking on the screw. Do not adjust
green marked screw.
Alternate bobbin case (no color on the screw) is set with tighter tension for embroidery with different
weights of bobbin threads and a variety of embroidery techniques. This bobbin case is identified
with a dark colored mark on the inside of the bobbin cavity. The screw on this case can be adjusted
if necessary.
See page 312 for how to remove the bobbin case.
CAUTION
• When embroidering on large garments (especially jackets or other heavy fabrics), do not let the fabric
hang over the table. Otherwise, the embroidery unit cannot move freely and the embroidery frame may
strike the needle, causing the needle to bend or break and possibly cause injury.
Place the fabric so that it does not hang off the table or hold the fabric to keep it from dragging.
Note
• Before embroidering, check that there is enough thread in the bobbin. If you start to sew your embroi-
dery project without enough thread in the bobbin, you will need to rewind the bobbin in the middle of the
embroidery pattern.
• Do not leave objects in the range of motion of the embroidery frame. The frame may strike the object
and cause a poor finish to the embroidery pattern.
• When embroidering on large garments (especially jackets or other heavy fabrics), do not let the fabric
hang over the table. Otherwise, the embroidery unit cannot move freely, and the pattern may not turn
out as planned.
