The bobbin can be filled with different thread material. For free-motion stitching to add texture. This method
is similar to free-motion sewing, but it is done on the wrong
side of the fabric.
The area to be sewn should be reinforced with embroidery stabilizer. The design can be drawn on the wrong
side of the fabric. You can also draw the design on the front side of the fabric. The lines can be followed
with a freely guided straight stitch, using polyester, cotton or rayon thread. The rows of stitching are visible
on the wrong side of the fabric and serve as reference lines for the bobbin-thread sewing.
Bobbin-thread sewing can be done using the BSR function. It is recommended to guide your project at
consistent speed evenly under the needle, following the lines of the design. The stabilizer must be removed
after sewing.
First sew a sample to check what the result looks like on the wrong side of the fabric.
Not all decorative stitches are suitable for this technique. Using simple decorative stitches provide the best
results. Avoid compact stitch types and beads of buttonholes.
