Basting stitch
For basting.
If the basting threads fall
out of the fabric, pull up
the bobbin thread before
sewing, and then pull
the upper thread and
bobbin thread under the
presser foot toward the
back of the machine
(page 29). Hold the
upper thread and
bobbin thread when
beginning to sew, and
when finished sewing,
cut the threads leaving
an excess amount of
thread.
Finally, hold the upper
thread and bobbin
thread at the beginning
of the stitching while
arranging the fabric.
