Turning a Square Corner
The cornering guide helps you maintain a 5/8˝ (1.6 cm)
seam allowance when sewing a corner.
When the fabric edge facing you lines up with the
cornering guide as illustrated, stop stitching and lower the
needle into the fabric by turning the handwheel toward
you.
Raise the presser foot and pivot the fabric so the edge of
the fabric will align with the 5/8˝ (1.6 cm) seam guide.
Lower the presser foot and start stitching in the new
direction.

Variable Needle Position
When the straight stitch (pattern A) is selected, you can
move the needle between center and left needle position
by turning the stitch width dial.
