Memo
• If there is thread left over from the beginning
of sewing, it may be sewn over as you con-
tinue embroidering the pattern, making it
very difficult to deal with the thread after the
pattern is finished. Trim the threads at the
beginning of each thread change.
Memo
• The Thread Trimming Function is originally
set to trim excess thread jumps (threads
linking parts of the pattern, etc.). Depending
on the type of thread and fabric that are
used, an end of upper thread may remain on
the surface of the fabric at the beginning of
the stitching. After embroidering is finished,
cut off this excess thread.
*If the setting has been turned off, trim the
excess thread jumps using scissors after the
pattern is finished.
See page 230 for information on the thread
trimming function.
