Decorative stitches – Applications
TIP
Test sewing
It is always a good idea to test sew with the materials
you intend to use - fabric, stabilizer, and threads.
Sewing Sideways Motion Stitches
™
use the slide-on table to enlarge sewing area
™
insert needle at starting point (pay attention to sewing
direction on template)
™
position fabric so that guide lines on template run parallel to
presser foot, then remove template
™
stitch: the sewing computer will stitch the selected stitch
•
make sure that the fabric feeds freely and evenly - it must not
be inhibited (must not bump into anything, or drag)
•
it is important to let the sewing computer stitch without
«helping» it by pushing, pulling or holding the fabric back
•
before starting to stitch, it might be helpful to draw a line on
the fabric in the same direction as the template lines to serve
as a guide for parallel stitching
Combining Sideways Motion Stitches and Functions
™
sideways motion stitches can be combined with all functions
active on the screen (e.g. «Mirror Image»)
•
the size of most sideways motion stitches cannot be altered
(noticeable by different color of Stitch Width and Stitch Length
Indication)
Balance
•
depending on type of fabric, stabilizer and thread quality, the
stitches may differ slightly from the original
•
use the Balance function to match the selected stitch to the
fabric used
