SEWING THE STITCHES
86
Heirloom Stitching
By sewing with the wing needle sold separately, the
needle holes are enlarged, creating a lace-like
decorative stitch.
This stitching is used to decorate tablecloths, hems, and
shirt fronts.
■

a
Insert the wing needle (130/705H, size 100/

Drawn Work (1
■
Hemstitching (2) (Drawn Work (1))
a
Pull out several threads from the fabric to
leave a 3 mm (approx. 1/8 inch) area open.
Note
For best results, use lightweight to medium weight
homespun fabrics with a slight stretch.
Note
The needle threader cannot be used. Manually pass
the thread through the eye of the needle from the front.
If the needle threader is used, damage to the machine
may result.
CAUTION
• The needle threader cannot be used. Thread the wing
needle by hand, from front to back. Using the needle
threader may result in damage to the machine.
• A more attractive finish can be obtained if you use a
“130/705H Wing” needle when sewing these
patterns. If using a wing needle and the stitch width
has been set manually, check that the needle will not
touch the presser foot by carefully rotating the
handwheel before starting sewing.
Memo
For details on the stitches, refer to the “STITCH
SETTING CHART” at the end of this manual.
Memo
For best result, use loosely woven fabrics.
