Darning

Reinforce points that will be subject to strain.

a

Place the darning plate on the needle plate as
shown below, and then remove both the
presser foot and presser foot holder assembly.

b

Place the fabric to be darned under the
presser foot together with a fabric underlay
for reinforcement.

c

Start sewing while gently moving the fabric
with your hands, alternately drawing the
fabric away and pulling it toward you.

d

Stop sewing when the portion to be darned is
filled with parallel stitching.

Over edge stitch

The Overlock Stitch is used to prevent the edge of
the fabric from fraying.

Place the edge of the fabric under the presser foot so
the needle enters the fabric when the left side of the
zigzag stitch is sewn and misses the edge of the
fabric with the right side of the stitch. Sew with this
needle position along the edge of the fabric.
