occur if (Start/stop button) is accidentally pressed and the machine starts sewing.

Fagoting

Stitching across an open seam is called "fagoting". It is used on blouses and children's clothing. This stitch is more decorative when thicker thread is used.

aUse an iron to fold the two pieces of fabric along their seams.

bBaste the two pieces of fabric, separated by about 4 mm (3/16 inch), onto thin paper or a sheet of water-soluble stabilizer.

•If you draw a line down the middle of the thin paper or water-soluble stabilizer, sewing is easier.
