the machine for
your fabric
As you get ready to sew, take ad-
vantage of the flexibility of your
sewing machine. With a choice of
needle sizes and four easy-to use
selectors for stitch length, pressure,
feed height, and needle-thread ten-
sion, you can adjust the machine to
sew perfectly on a wide variety of
fabrics. The table on page 13 will
guide you in selecting correct thread,
needle sizes, and stitch length accor-
ding to the weight of your fabric. Be
sure to use like threads for both
needle and bobbin.
