Sewing a seam
You can sew seams easily and accurately
when you follow the suggestions below.
Placing fabric under foot
Most fabrics can be piaced under the foot by
raising the presser foot lifter (1) to Its normal
“Up” position (2), where it locks in place.
When using buiky fabric, muitipie fabric iayers
or an embroidery hoop, raise the iifter tc/the
high rise position {3), thus increasing the space
between the foot and the needle plate.
• Lower presser foot lifter all the way down and
you are ready to sew.
Basting
Pin basting and hand basting are easy ways
to make temporary seams before machine
sewing.
• To pin baste, insert pins at stitching line.
NEVER place pins on the underside of fabric
in contact with the feed. Do not sew over
pins; pull them out as you stitch.
• To hand baste, make long stitches that can
be easily removed.
Keeping seams straight
To keep seams straight, use one of the
guidelines on the needle plate.
• The most commonly used line (1), the 5/8 Inch
(1.6 cm) seam allowance, is extended onto
the slide plate.
