SECURING A SEAM

There are 2 methods for securing the threads:

Method #1: Back Stitching

x At start of seam, sew 1/2 in., then pull fabric backwards to sew 4-5 back stitches.

x Hold both fabric ends and continue sew- ing forward to complete seam. Secure end of seam by backstitching again.

Method #2: Tying Off

x When the seam is completed, use nee- dle threader to pull needle thread (top) to underside of fabric.

x Tie a square knot with both threads un- derside of the fabric.

DARNING

x Place the area to be darned under presser foot.

x Lower the presser foot and start stitch- ing.

x Alternately guide fabric toward you and gently pull it away from you.

x For additional strength, cover parallel stitching area with crosswise stitching.
