Free motion darning, stippling, embroidery

and monogram

* The darning foot is an optional accessory not included with your

machine. (1)

Install the darning plate. (2)

For darning, first sew around the edge of the hole (to secure the

threads). (5)

Free motion darning is accomplished without the sewing machine

internal feed system. Movement of the fabric is controlled by the

operator. It is necessary to coordinate sewing speed and

movement of fabric.

For embroidery and monograms draw or trace your design onto

your fabric using a marking pencil.
Sew a straight or zigzag stitch following your design line. Using the

optional darning foot will help guide you as you sew.

Set the machine as illustrated.

Remove the presser foot clamp. (3)

Attach the darning foot to the presser foot holder. The lever (A)

should be behind the needle clamp screw (B). Press the darning

foot on firmly from behind with your index finger and tighten the

screw (C). (4)

First row: Always work from left to right. Turn work by 1/4 and

oversew.

A darning hoop is recommended for easier sewing and better

results.
For stippling, stitch in any direction without repositioning the quilt. It

is used to create texture and fill the background.
