TAPERING/CREATIVE EMBROIDERY
Tapering is done by gradually increasing and
decreasing the stitch width while sewing. By this

method, tapered monograms and other in
teresting designs can be created. For tapered

rnonograms run the machine fast while turning
the width dial slowly from narrow to wide and
