SATIN STITCHING
SETTINGS
Stitch Selector - Zigzag Stitch
Stitch Length Dial - Between 0 and 24
Satin Stitch Foot
Closely spaced zigzag stitches are called satin
stitches. This is an attractive stitch used for
appliqueing, bar tacking.
Whenever you are using this stitch, it is well
to remember to loosen the tension of the top
thread slightly. The wider the stitch you
make, the looser the tension should be.
If you are stitching on a very soft fabric, use a
backing of tissue paper or interfacing for a
well formed stitch. Puckering of the material
will be eliminated and the bobbin thread will
not be visible on the right side of the fabric.
As with all special stitches, it is best to make
a sample design on your fabric before starting
the design on the garment.
