FLEXI-STITCH
PATTERNS (Continued)
To produce a
Flexi-Stitch
pattern, the
stitch width selector must be moved from
the straight-stitch setting i to a setting
from ^ to ^. Stitch width is increased
as the dial is moved to the right.
On setting i all width is removed from
Flexi-Stitch'
patterns and the straight
stretch stitch is produced.

TENSION
NEEDLE-THREAD
Some
Fiexi-Stitch
patterns require more
needle-thread tension than others. Make
a test sample with the fabric, thread and
presser foot you plan to use so that you
can adjust tension to suit the stitch you
have chosen.
For your test sample, set the tension dial
on 3 or 4. Notice the stitching; if the fabric
puckers, decrease tension by turning the
dial to a lower number. Sew at moderate
speed.
Before moving needle position and stitch
width selectors make sure needle is above
fabric and the stitch length dial is OFF
buttonhole settings.
