Shorten the stitch length setting to obtain a fine stitch. Sew slowly,
keeping the seams parallel with the fabric edge as you guide the
fabric around the curve.
Sewing curves (using a zigzag stitch)
Turn back the desired width of fabric and position it over the lower
fabric, then sew so that the stitch bridges both pieces of fabric.
Patchwork (for crazy quilts)
Attach the appliqué using a temporary spray adhesive or basting,
then sew it.
*
Sew a zigzag stitch while positioning the right hand needle
drop point just outside the edge of the fabric.
Appliqué (using a zigzag stitch)
Sew the overcasting along the edge of the fabric so that the right-
hand side needle drop point is over the edge of the fabric.
