CREATIVE EMBROIDERY
Be sure zigzag presser is in place.
The- satin .stitch which 's really just a very short zigzag .stitch
and the basis for most embroidery, is obtained by setting stitch
length as near 0 as possible without stopping the feeding action
and zigzag width at 5.
To stitch continuously at one width of zigzag stitching, set
Zigzag width dial
to chosen
vStitch width
number.
With the machine set for a short stitch length, different de.signs
can be made by turning the zigzag width dial back and forth
between 0 and 5 or any other combination of widths.
Set a rhythm for yourself and then proceed. After awhile you
will become quite skillful, varying your designs by the speed of
the machine, stitch length, and manipulation of the zigzag width
knob.
