Sew on the appliqué, ensuring that the needle sews
along the outer edge of the appliqué.
When sewing corners, lower the needle down into the
fabric.

The balance must be adjusted if the nature of the fabric
prevents a uniform forward and backward feed. To do so,
turn the stitch length knob as follows:
If the stitches are being condensed, turn the knob
towards "+".
If the stitches are being expanded, turn the knob
towards "–".
