Gyiding and Supporting Fabric
Most fabrics need to be guided in front of the presser
foot only, as illustrated.
Some fabrics, however, require support while being
stitched. These fabrics require using the Straight
Stitch Presser Foot, as shown.
® For filmy sheers, knits, tricots, etc., apply gentle
tension by holding seam in front and back of the
presser foot.
® For stretch fabrics, apply firm tension front and
back when stitching in the same direction as the
stretch. For seams not on the stretch direction
stitch in conventional manner, guiding fabric in
front of presser foot.
To keep the seam straight as you stitch, use one of the
numbered guide lines on the throat plate. Numbers
indicate distance, in eighths of an inch, from the
needle. If you want a % inch seam, for example, line
up your fabric with line 5. Note that line 5, the one
most commonly used, is extended on the slide plate
for your convenience.
For additional guidance, you may wish to purchase
the Seam Guide. (See page 59.)
