Setting the fabric in the
embroidery frame
The fabric is stretched in the embroidery frame. If the
fabric is loose, the quality of the embroidery pattern
may be poor. Put the fabric in the frame without slack
following the steps below. Have a fabric with a
stabilizer material attached and the embroidery frame
(medium, small, large or extra large (multi-position))
ready.
■ Embroidery frame (large)
Embroidery can be done in an area with a height of
up to 18 cm (7 inches) and a width of up to 13 cm
(5 inches). This is used to embroider multiple
patterns without changing the fabric position in the
frame.
■ Embroidery frame (medium)[option]
Patterns with a height of up to 10 cm (4 inches)
and a width of up to 10 cm (4 inches) can be
embroidered.
■ Embroidery frame (small)[option]
Patterns with a height of up to 2 cm (1 inch) and a
width of up to 6 cm (2-1/2 inches) can be
embroidered. This is used for letters and other
small embroidery.
• There are patterns for which embroidery
frame (small) cannot be used.
■ Embroidery frame (extra large (multi-position))
[option]
Embroidery can be done in an area with a height of
up to 30 cm (12 inches) and a width of up to 13 cm
(5 inches). This is used to embroider connected or
combined characters or patterns, or large patterns.
CAUTION
