TIP
Test sewing
It is always a good idea to test sew
with the materials you intend to use –
fabric, stabilizer, and threads.
Monograms (sideways motion)
•
sideways motion stitches are large stitches or patterns which
are sewn with the fabric being fed sideways, as well as
forward and backward
•
monograms (sideways motion) are represented by 4 arrows
top left in the Stitch Altering Area
•
start (green point) and end (red cross) are visible in the Stitch
Altering Area
Note:
Size 1 monograms are dealt with
differently than sizes 2 and 3.

when sewing, ensure that fabric feeds smoothly and
easily, without bumping into anything or dragging

it is important to let the sewing computer do the
stitching freely; do not pull, push, or hold the fabric
back

quality, the stitched patterns may differ slightly from
