Basic sewing techniques
Darning and mending
Darning a small hole or a tear before it becomes larger can save a
garment. Choose a
fi ne thread in a color as close to your garment
as possible.
1. Place the fabric in position under the presser foot.
2. Start sewing above the hole and over it.
3. Once over the hole, press the Reverse button. Continue
sewing. The machine sews back and forth across the hole 14
times and then stops.
4. To repeat the stitch with the same size, press the STOP
button. Reposition your fabric, then step on the foot control
to sew again. The stitch will now repeat the same size darning
square. The machine will stop automatically when the stitch is
completed.
Sewing hems in heavy fabric
When sewing over seams in extra heavy fabric or a blue jeans
hem, the foot can tip as the machine climbs over the seam. Use
the clearance plate to balance the height of the presser foot as
you sew.
One side of the plate is thicker than the other. Use the side that
suits the thickness of the seam best.

Blind hem
The blind hem creates an invisible hem on garments. There are
two types of blind hem; one is recommended for medium to
heavy stretch fabric, the other for medium to heavy woven fabric.
Fold the fabric as illustrated. Make sure the folded edge of the
fabric follows the inside of the right “toe” of Blind Hem Foot D.
The left swing of the needle should just catch the edge of the
folded fabric.
If necessary, adjust the stitch width as needed to barely “catch”
the fold.
NOTE:
The blind hem technique is not recommended for
light weight fabric or leather/vinyl. If you select the blind
hem and light woven, light stretch or leather and vinyl you
will hear a beep and the technique will be unselected.
