Align the fabric edge with the seam guide marking on the needle plate and begin sewing [Fig. 1]. Take a few stitches in reverse (backstitch) to secure the seam. Continue stitching forward at a consistent speed, while guiding the fabric along the seam guide marking. Backstitch at the end of the seam [Fig. 2]. Use a shorter stitch length (2-3) when patchwork piecing [Fig. 3] or sewing sheer fabrics. Use a longer stitch (3.5-4) when sewing heavy, thick, or napped fabrics such as denim, polar fleece, or velvet [Fig. 4]. BASTING Use a basting stitch to sew temporary seams. It is ideal to use when you need to test fit a garment before sewing the seams permanently. Align the fabric edge with the seam guide markings and sew at a consistent speed. Do not backstitch at the beginning or end of the seam. After completing the permanent seam, pull the basting stitch bobbin thread to remove the basting stitches [Fig. 5]. TOPSTITCHING and EDGESTITCHING Embellish a garment or special project with topstitching. Use a contrasting thread color for extra dimension. Attach the blind hem foot. To topstitch, place fabric so the needle is 3/8” from the finished edge of the fabric. Adjust the guide to butt up against the fabric edge [Fig. 6]. Lower the foot and sew, guiding the fabric edge along the foot guide [Fig. 7]. To edgestitch, place the fabric so the needle is 1/8” from the finished fabric edge. Adjust the guide, lower the foot, and sew [Fig. 8].

Sew a row of basting stitches 1/4” away from the fabric edge. Sew a second row of basting stitches 1/2” away from the fabric edge [Fig. 1]. Do not backstitch. Gently pull the bobbin thread from the underside of the fabric [Fig. 2]. Adjust gathers evenly by pushing the fabric along the stitching. ZIPPER INSERTION The zipper foot is designed to allow you to sew close to raised edges. Easily and accurately insert zippers and covered cording or piping in seams using the zipper foot. Remove the presser foot holder. Attach the zipper foot to the presser foot bar. Raise the needle to the highest position. The foot can be adjusted to the left or right side of the needle by loosening the screw on the foot, sliding the foot and re-tightening the screw [Fig. 3]. To sew the right side of the zipper, adjust the zipper foot so it is on the right side of the needle and the needle clears the notch on the left side of the zipper foot [Fig. 4]. To sew the left side of the zipper, adjust the zipper foot so it is on the left side of the needle and the needle clears notch on the right side of the zipper foot [Fig. 5]. Use the straight stitch ONLY with this foot. PIPING INSERTION Add decorative detail to home decorating projects and create designer fashion looks by inserting covered cord or purchased piping within seams. Attach the zipper foot and adjust the sliding foot to the right side of the needle.
