The Seam Guide

●Attach the guide to the machine with the thumb screw in either of the threaded holes at the right of the needle.

●Adjust for width desired.

●For straight edges, align guide with the presser foot.

●For curved edges, set the guide at an angle so that the end closest to the needle acts as a guide.

●For pinned seams, place the pins with the points toward the seam edge so that they nip into the fabric at the stitching line. The hinged foot will then ride freely over the points.
