UTILITY STITCHES ——————————————————————————————————————————————————

4Sew reinforcement stitches.

When sewing with a character stitch, reinforcement stitches are automatically sewn after each character.

When sewing a pattern with a stitch other than a character stitch, it is useful to first set the automatic reverse/reinforcement stitching setting. For details, refer to “Automatically sewing reverse/ reinforcement stitches” (page 57).

5When you are finished sewing, use scissors to trim off any excess threads at the beginning of the stitching and between the patterns.
