Application of Various Decorative Stitches
Depending on the type of fabric, select simple or more
complicated decorative stitches to enhance the fabric.
™
lightweight fabrics
•
use simple decorative stitches for a particularly nice effect
on lightweight fabric (e.g. Decorative stitch No. 101)
™
mediumweight fabrics
•
simple and more complicated decorative stitches -
programmed with triple straight stitch or with a few satin
stitches - are particularly suitable for mediumweight
fabrics (e.g. Decorative stitch No. 107)
™
heavyweight fabrics
•
use more intricate decorative stitches - programmed with
satin stitches - on heavyweight fabrics for outstanding
decorative stitching (e.g. Decorative stitch No. 401)
Perfect Stitch Formation
™
use the same needle and bobbin thread color
™
use a stabilizer on the wrong side of the fabric for perfect
stitch formation
™
use an additional, water soluble stabilizer on the right side
of pile or longfiber fabrics (e.g. wool, velvet, etc.)
