d) Guiding the material
ᕡ Guide normal materials only as
shown in the illustration. Avoid
pulling it, as this can cause the nee-
dle to bend or break.
• Very fine materials are drawn in
slightly when sewing. To prevent this,
simply lay a thin sheet of paper under
the material and sew with the paper
in place. When you have finished
sewing, carefully pull the paper away
from the material; the result is a very
clean stitch.
ᕢ With stretch fabrics it may be nec-
essary to guide the material towards
and away from the sew foot, to pre-
vent the fabric from being drawn in.
e) Changing the sewing
direction
You have arrived at a certain point, and
you now want to continue sewing in a
different direction ..
ᕣ You can do this very easily by stop-
ping at the desired point and leaving
the needle in the material.
• Raise the sew foot using the foot
pedal.
• Turn the material around the needle
in the desired direction
• Lower the sew foot.
You can now continue sewing in the
usual way in the new direction.
