EMBROIDERING WITH A HOOP
It is easy to follow a stamped design or to
work free hand when embroidering or monogram-
ing. (See Fig. 26). Release the pressure from
the foot by pressing down on the snap lock ring
darner. Push the drop feed button down all the
way.
Stretch the fabric in an embroidery hoop, and
place under the needle after removing the presser
foot. Set the stitch width at the size you prefer
and lower the presser bar lifter. Then operate the
machine at a rather high speed while moving the
hoop slowly with both hands. Work carefully and be sure to keep fingers out of the path of
the needle.
should you encounter skip stitches, the fabric is not stretched tight enough or a darning spring
is needed (see attachments available from your dealer illustrated in the back of this book).
DARN OR MONOGRAM WITHOUT HOOP
Fig. 26
If you wish to darn or monogram without embroidery hoop, leave zigzag presser foot i
in
place, release all pressure on presser foot, set stitch length at 0,- set zigzag stitch width to suit,
and leave feed in sewing position.
When darning or monograming in this manner, the fabric must be held taut or skipped stitches
will be encountered.
