EDGE GUIDE / QUILTING BAR
The edge guide/quilting bar is best utilized when paired with
the all purpose foot or the 1/4" foot (optional accessory). The
edge guide/quilting bar is used to sew perfect straight seams.
It can be used to stitch parallel lines in quilting, or can be used
to help guide you to sew 5/8 of an inch seam allowances.
To attach the guide, simply insert it into the opening of the
shank at the back of the presser foot on your machine.
DARNING / FREEHAND EMBROIDERY FOOT
This foot is used to create freehand embroidery, monograms
and stippling when the machine is set in regular sewing mode
(embroidery unit not attached).
1. Drop the feed dogs. To do so, remove the free arm. On
the backside of the exposed area, move the lever from the
right to the left.
2. Thread the needle with the machine embroidery thread. If
you have chosen a rayon sheen as embroidery thread, use
D VSHFLDO EREELQ WKUHDG LQ WKH EREELQ FDOOHG EREELQ ¿OO
3. Place a stabilizer on the back layer of the fabric to create
fabric stiffness and prevent distortion of the fabric during
embroidering. The fabric stabilizer can be further secured
by spraying it with a temporary adhesive.
4. Draw your chosen design, or letter for sewing a monogram,
on the fabric using a disappearing fabric-marking pen.
5. Hoop the fabric. Pull it tight with an even tension.
6. Place the hooped fabric under the darning/ freehand
embroidery foot and lower the foot.
7. Sew with a fast speed while guiding the fabric slowly.
8. When the design is complete, pull the threads to the back
and neaten or tie a knot. Trim away the stabilizer and press
the fabric.
EVEN FEED FOOT
This foot has its own set of feed dogs that work in conjunction
with the machine’s feeding system to improve the flow of
fabric. This is particularly important when sewing several
layers of fabric, such as in quilting. It is also valuable when
matching plaids or stripes, and in sewing pile types of fabrics
such as velour and ultra-suede.
1. Secure the walking foot to the shank, while making sure
the extension arm slips over the needle clamp screw.
2. Tighten the thumb screw to secure the foot to the shank.
3. Place two pieces of fabric right sides together.
4. Sew seam from top to bottom.
* The darning / freehand embroidery
foot is an optional accessory.
* The even feed is an optional ccessory.
