Helpful Basics
Securing Stitches
Secure straight stitches using the reverse
sewing feature. As long as the reverse sewing
lever is depressed, the machine will sew in
reverse.
Thread Cutter
To cut the thread at the end of a seam, raise
the presser foot and remove the fabric, pulling
the threads towards the back. Go past the
side thread cutter and then back over the top
to cut the thread. The threads are now the
proper length to begin sewing the next seam.
Basting
Select the straight stitch and adjust the length
to 4 mm - 5 mm. This forms a loose, long stitch
that can temporarily hold fabrics together and
easily be removed as needed.
