7.1 Overview Decorative Stitches
Easier or more difficult decorative stitches come into their own depending on the type of fabric.
• Decorative stitches which are programmed with simple straight stitches are particularly appropriate for
lightweight materials, e.g. Decorative stitch
No.101.
• Decorative stitches which are programmed with triple straight stitches or with a few satin stitches are
particularly appropriate for medium-weight materials, e.g. Decorative stitch
No.107.
• Decorative stitches which are programmed with satin stitches are particularly appropriate for
heavyweight materials, e.g. Decorative stitch
No.401.
For a perfect stitch formation it is of advantage to use the same thread color for upper and bobbin thread
and a stabilizer. With pile or longfiber materials, it is recommended to use an additional water-soluble
stabilizer on the right side, which can be easily removed after sewing.
