Sewing attractive finishes

Refer to the table below and the “FABRIC/THREAD/NEEDLE COMBINATION CHART” for recommended
fabrics, threads and needles to use in order to obtain attractive sewing finishes. Furthermore, pattern slippages
may occur when using different fabric thicknesses or types of stabilizers. Be sure to carry out a test sewing
beforehand to check.

FABRIC

THREAD

NEEDLE

When sewing thin or stretch fabrics, fab-
rics with coarse weaves, or characters/
decorative stitches stored in the machine;
attach interfacing to the reverse side. If
you do not wish to attach interfacing,
place the fabric onto some thin paper
such as tracing paper before starting to
sew. This acts as a stabilizer.
