Free Motion Quilting
With free motion quilting, the feed dogs can be lowered
by pressing
, so that the fabric can be moved freely in
any direction.
For free motion quilting, use free motion quilting foot “C”
or free motion open toe quilting foot “O” depending on
the stitch that is selected, and set the machine to free
motion sewing mode. In this mode, the presser foot is
raised to the necessary height for free motion sewing.
We recommend attaching the foot controller and sewing
at a consistent speed. You can adjust the sewing speed
with the speed control slide on the machine.
Using free motion quilting foot “C”
Use the free motion quilting foot “C” with straight stitch
needle plate for free motion sewing.

Memo
• With free motion quilting, control the feeding speed
of the fabric to match the sewing speed. If the
fabric is moved faster than the sewing speed, the
needle may break or other damage may result.
• When starting to sew, the internal sensor detects
the thickness of the fabric, and the quilting foot is
raised to the height specified in the machine
settings screen. Press
to display [Free
Motion Foot Height] of the settings screen. Press
or
to select the height that the quilting foot
is raised above the fabric.

quilting foot “C” is indicated in the upper-left
corner of the screen. When the other stitches are
selected, free motion open toe quilting foot “O” is
indicated in the screen.
CAUTION
• When using free motion quilting foot “C”, be
sure to use the straight stitch needle plate. If the
needle is moved to any position other than the
middle (center) needle position, the needle may
