Stitch Counter Sewing
(artista
730 on
ly)
The Stitch Counter function of the
artista
730 is not only for
darning and buttonholes . It can also be used to sew multiple
copies of the same line of stitching, each precisely the same
length.
A variety of stitches can be sewn using the Stitch Counter
function. Several are found in the Practical stitch menu, such
as Zigzag and Blindstitch. Others include the Blanket and
Double Blanket stitches from the Quilting stitch menu.
• Draw three parallel lines on the fabric,
½
” apart. Select stitch
#329. Select the Stitch Counter function. Stitch along the first
marked line. When desired length is sewn, press Quick
Reverse; the machine stops at the end of the current stitch
pattern. The line of stitches is now programmed.
• Move the fabric to the beginning of the second marked line.
Sew. The
artista
730 automatically stops at the end of the
programmed line of stitches.
• Stitch the programmed seam again, this time on the third line.
