ZIGZAG STITCHING

The top thread may appear on the bottom depending on the
thread, fabric, type of stitch and sewing speed, but the bobbin
thread must never appear on the top of the fabric.

If bobbin thread is pulling to the top or you are experiencing
puckering, slightly reduce the tension with the Thread Tension
Control.

PLACEMENT OF PATTERNS

The satin stitch increases from the center needle position;
making for a center tapered stitch as illustrated.

SATIN STITCH

This is a closely spaced attractive stitch for appliqué, bar-
tacking, etc. Slightly loosen the top thread tension and
manually adjust the stitch length between 0.5 and 2.0 for satin
stitching.
Use a backing of stabilizer or interfacing for sheer materials to
avoid puckering.

NOTE: When sewing a dense (closely spaced) Satin
Stitch, the Satin Stitch Foot MUST be used.
