Set Pattern Selector for Straight Stitching

With the basting stitch that is buiit into your
sewing machine, you can produce basting
stitches of any length up to two inches. Thus,
you can choose just the right length for your
sewing job, considering the weight of your

fabric and how securely the pieces need to be

held together. A few of the many sewing jobs

for which you will find speed basting particu

larly useful are:

• Joining seams for trial fittings.

• Marking construction guidelines.

• Basting pleats, hems, and seams.

Stitch Length

The stitch-length dial regulates the length of

basting stitches but, because the basting disc

changes the interval at which the needle en
ters the fabric, the numbers on the dial no

longer represent stitches per inch.

The settings on the dial and the approximate

length of the basting stitches they produce are

illustrated. The very short stitches produced

in the triangle above the FINE area are used

to fasten stitching starts.
