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 lightweight or stretch fab-
rics, fabrics with coarse weaves, or deco-
rative stitches stored in the machine; at-
tach interfacing to the wrong 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.
