Sewing Mode
Thread Tension
Correct tension
For the best stitch appearance and durability, make sure
the needle thread tension is correctly adjusted, i.e. for
general sewing, the threads evenly meet between the
two fabric layers. Your sewing machine electronically
sets a thread tension for the selected stitch. Depending
on the fabric, batting, thread etc, the tension may need
to be adjusted. See page 30 for instructions on how to
change the setting manually.
Tension too tight
If the bobbin thread is visible on the top side of the
fabric, the needle thread tension is too tight. Reduce the
needle thread tension.
Tension too loose
If top thread is visible on the underside of the fabric, the
needle thread tension is too loose. Increase the needle
thread tension.
For decorative stitches and buttonholes, the top thread
should be visible on the underside of the fabric.
Left: mirror side to side button. Right: mirror end to end
button.
To mirror stitches or sequences side to side, press the
mirror side to side button. To mirror end to end, press
the mirror end to end button.
Personal Stitch
Save Personal Stitch
Save your personal stitch in your machine by pressing
the save button. Adjustments in stitch length, width,
density, elongation, mirroring and thread tension will
be saved.
Note: Some special stitches, such as buttonholes, cannot be
saved. A pop-up will inform you of this when you try to save
such a stitch.
Overwrite Personal Stitch
If the memory is occupied, a pop-up message will
appear asking if you wish to overwrite the previously
saved stitch or sequence with the new one. Select Yes or
No with the arrow buttons and press the OK.
Load your personal stitch by pressing the load button.
