4-thread overedge seam

Program 07

When all tensions are correctly set, the loops 

of both looper threads (pink and yellow) are 

directly on the edge of the fabric.

The needle threads (blue and green) are too 

loose, causing larger loops of needle thread on 

the underside of the fabric.

Set the blue and green thread tension to a 

higher value.

The 

upper looper thread 

(pink) appears on the 

underside of the fabric.

Set the pink thread tension to a higher value 

and/or the yellow thread tension to a lower 

value.

The 

lower looper thread

 (yellow) appears on 

the top side of the fabric.

Set the yellow thread tension to a higher value 

and/or the pink thread tension to a lower 

value.
