20 different types of decorative stitches are available.
Following are examples of how to use and sew these stitches.
You can use other stitches in the same way.
* You should carry out a test sewing on an extra piece of the
fabric to be sewn to check the pattern to be used.
* Before starting to sew, check that there is enough thread
wound onto the bobbin so that the thread will not run out
during sewing.
* Slightly loosen top thread tension.
Helpful Hint: For a more pleasing appearance
experiment with a slightly lower (-) Tension setting.
IDEAS FOR DESIGN STITCHING
Crescent pattern on collar
This is an ideal decorative stitch for the sleeves and collars of
ladies' and children's clothes, and also for sewing edges.
When using this stitch pattern for sewing edges, first sew the
stitch and then trim the edge of the fabric along the edge of
the stitch. Be careful not to cut the stitch at this time.
Helpful Hint: Use a lightweight removable stabilizer to
enhance stitch quality.
Semicircle on bias tape
Use bias tape and fold back the edge. Sew the semicircle
pattern on top of this.
Arrowhead on lapel
In addition to using this pattern as a decorative stitch, it can
also be used as a triangular backtack stitch for reinforcing
places which can easily unravel. This is particularly useful for
sewing both edges of pockets.
Sunrise on narrow hem
Fold over the edge of the fabric and use this stitch to embellish
the edge.
Pyramid on bias tape
Use bias tape and fold back the edge. Sew the pyramid
pattern on top of this.
Domino on bias tape
Use bias tape and fold back the edge. Sew the domino stitch
on top of this.
Diamond on narrow hem
Fold over the edge of the fabric and use this stitch to tidy up
the edge.
Scallop stitches and diamond stitches can be combined to
create other attractive patterns.
