Embroidering
does
require
some
practice,
but
with the
right
tips
and
hints,
it
can be
easy
to
achieve
beautiful
embroidery results.
Thread
tension
In
general,
a looser
thread
tension
is used
for
embroidery
work
than
for utility
sewing
(±3).
In
addition,
the
bobbin
thread
tension
has
to be
increased
by
turning
the
adjusting
screw
on
the
bobbin
case
slightly
to
the
right.
This
makes
the
embroidery
more uniform
and
bolder
(see
page
25).
Sewing
feet
The
most
suitable
sewing
foot for
embroidery
work
is
No. 2A.
Remember!
Never
engage
the
Dual
Feed
when
doing
embroidery
work
as
this could
cause
a
distortion
in
the
embroidery
pattern.
Each
pattern
in
the machine
is
pre-programmed
with its
optimum
length
and width
settings.
If
you
are
embroidering
on
difficult
materials
such
as
jersey,
silk
or heavy
woollens however,
you
should
adjust
your
pattern
with
the
balance.
(see
page
47).
Stabilizing
the
fabric
Whether
working
on
heavy
or
thin
materials,
the
result
will
be better
if the
fabric
has been
stabiliz
ed.
Many
materials
tend
to
pucker,
particularly
when
using
dense
embroidery
stitches.
Therefore,
we
recommend:
Apply
iron-on
or tear-away
stabilizer
under
the
fabric
to be
embroidered.This
will
stabilize
it and
can
be
removed
quickly
and
easily
after
the
embroidery
work
has
been
completed.
Water
soluble
stabilizers
are
transparent
gelatine
stabilizers
which
you
place
under
the fabric
and
overstitch.
After the
embroidery
work
has
been
completed,
this
stabilizer
can
be effortlessy
remov
ed
by
rinsing
under
running
water.
Alternatively,
a
gel stabilizer
can
be
used
to stabilize
the
fabric.
The
gel
has
a similar
effect
to
spray-on
starch.
It
has
to dry
after
being
applied
but
it becomes
very
stiff
and
can be
embroidered
on
most
materials
without
a
paper
underlay.
After
the
completion
of
the
embroidery
work,
the gel
can
be washed
out
easily.
