Sewing a curve with a zigzag stitch

Set the stitch length short in order to obtain a fine stitch. Sew slowly while keeping the seam parallel to the fabric edge as you guide the fabric around the curve.

*For sharp corners, temporarily stop sewing with the needle in the material, then raise the presser foot and carefully turn the fabric while keeping it level with the presser foot. Lower the presser foot and continue sewing.

1.Raising the presser foot lever even further raises the presser foot to a higher position allowing you to sew on thicker fabrics. With the presser foot in the up position, raise the presser foot lever even higher to make room for thicker fabrics.

2.If the fabric will not feed at the beginning of sewing, place another piece of fabric with the same thickness at the back of the material.

Place thin paper or stabilizer material under the fabric before sew- ing.

*Use a straight stitch foot to eliminate any puckering. Remem- ber to select the center needle position. Additional adjustment of stitch length and tension may be necessary.
