3Put the section you want to darn under the presser foot together with fabric for reinforcement.

4Turn on the machine.

5Begin sewing by alternating between gently drawing the work away from you and pulling it toward you.

Note

●Sew while holding the fabric stretched in order to keep the fabric held down.
