These techniques may require some special presser feet
and accessories.
Tapering Stitches
The Tapering commands will be visible when a stitch
that can be tapered is selected. Touch the Tapering
menu to open a view of angles for beginning and end
tapers. Select an angle by touching it in the selection
area. The machine will sew the beginning tapered point
and then continue with the selected stitch. When the
desired length has been sewn, touch the Reverse button.
The stitch will taper to the end. Select taper Off to
remove any tapering at the beginning or end of the
stitch. If you select taper Off on both the beginning and
end, the stitch will be a regular stitch without tapering.
Note: The Tapering commands will not be visible if you select
e.g. a buttonhole.
Taper Satin Stitch Exercise
The Taper Stitch automatically tapers the satin stitch for
corners and points and can be used for satin stitch
lettering. Try the satin stitch exercise and stitch a corner
of the tapered satin stitch on a piece of stabilized fabric.
1. Select stitch 4.3.6 in menu 4 - satin stitches.
2. Open Tapering and select 45 degrees for both
beginning and end.
3. Activate Needle Stop Up/Down on your machine and
start to sew. The machine will sew the tapered point and
then continue with a satin stitch at the selected width.
4. When the satin stitch is as long as desired, touch the
Reverse button. This will start the end tapering.
5. Turn your fabric to continue with the next tapered
satin stitch.
