SEWING
Sewing attractive finishes
Refer to the table below and the "RELATED CHART OF SEWING FABRICS, THREADS AND NEEDLES"
for recommended fabrics, threads and needles to use in order to use in order to obtain attractive sewing
finishes. Furthermore, pattern slippages may occur when using different fabric thicknesses or types of
stabilizers. Be sure to carry out a test sewing beforehand to check.
When sewing thin or stretch fabrics,
fabrics with coarse weaves, or
characters/decoratives stitches stored
in the machine attach interfacing to the
FABRIC
reverse side. If you do not wish to
attach interfacing, place the fabric onto
some thin paper such as tracing paper
before starting to sew. This acts as a
stabilizer.

Using a pattern sheet
You can use the pattern sheet which is provided as an accessory to make marks on the material for use in
positioning. This is particularly helpful when sewing large characters.

the pattern is to be sewn on the fabric, and use a chalk pen
to make marks on the fabric at the positions of the holes.

When sewing patterns in mirror image, turn the pattern
sheet upside-down.
