SECTION III BASIC SEWING

Straight Stitch Sewing

Raise the presser foot and position the fabric to a

stitching guide line on the needle plate.

Lower the needle into the fabric.

Lower the presser foot and smooth the threads toward

the back. Depress the foot control.

Gently guide the fabric along the guide line letting the

fabric feed by itself.

For fastening the ends of seams, press the reverse

stitch button and sew several reverse stitches.

Raise the presser foot and remove the fabric, drawing

the threads to the back.

The threads are cut the proper length for starting the

next seam.

To Change Sewing Direction

Stop the machine and turn the handwheel toward you

to bring the needle down into the fabric.

Raise the presser foot.

Pivot the fabric around the needle to change sewing

direction as desired. Lower the presser foot and

continue sewing.
