Adjusting the Thread Tension
The default thread tension, which is automatically set,
can normally be used regardless of the type of thread or
fabric being sewn. However, with some fabric and
thread combinations, the thread tension may need to be
adjusted.
■ Correct Thread Tension
The upper thread and the bobbin thread should
cross near the center of the fabric. If the thread
tension is incorrectly set, the seam may have a poor
finish or the fabric may pucker.
