models with zigzag BSR capability only (630/640/730)
Use the BSR zigzag option to easily and quickly create freehand
embroidery designs, shade or accent fabric motifs, and couch
decorative fibers. Experiment with bobbinwork and other free-motion
techniques to create stunning fabric embellishments.
Trace or draw leaf shape (1) on fabric. Layer fabric and batting to
create a “quilt sandwich.” Thread machine with King Tut in the needle
and Bottom Line in the bobbin. Place fabric under the BSR foot.
• Select straight stitch and preferred mode. Stitch the leaf shape,
tracing lines several times (2).
• Select zigzag stitch and preferred mode. Shade the left side of the
leaf (3).
Experiment with different stitch lengths and widths, making note
of your preferences.
