4. Turn the fabric over and attach it in place by sewing basting

stitches around the edge.

5. Attach monogramming foot N, press

, and then sew

around the edge, while making sure that the needle drops

outside of the pattern as close to the edge as possible.

Note
If automatic thread cutting and automatic reverse/reinforcement
stitching are turned on before you start sewing, pressing just the
start/stop button automatically sews reinforcement stitches
before sewing. In addition, pressing the reverse/reinforcement
stitch button at the end of the stitching automatically sews
reinforcement stitches, trims the threads and stops the
machine.
