4. OTHER INFORMATION

SATIN FOOT

The Satin foot is grooved to permit dense stitching to pass under it easily. It is most useful for sewing satin stitches and as an alternative to the General Purpose Foot when sewing Stretch Stitches.

Closely spaced zig-zag stitches are called satin stitches. This is an attractive stitch used primarily for appliqueing and bar tacking. Slightly loosen top thread tension for satin stitching. Use a backing of tissue paper or interfacing for the sheer materials to avoid puckering.

GATHERING FOOT

The gathering foot can form single rows of shirring quickly and easily. You can also use this foot to gather one fabric while simultaneously attaching it to another fabric which remains flat.

To do shirring of a single layer of fabric:

1.Attach gathering foot and select straight stitch.

2.Place the fabric to be gathered underneath the gathering foot.

3.Select a long stitch length,which produced more fullness, and increase upper thread tension slightly.

To gather one fabric and stitch onto another fabric:

1.Attach gathering foot and select straight stitch.

2.Place the fabric to be gathered underneath the gathering foot.

3.Insert the other fabric (that will remain flat) into the slot of the foot.

4.Lower the needle and sew a few stitches while holding the thread ends taut.

5.As you sew, hold the upper fabric with your left hand and the lower fabric with your right hand. Though they will feed together through the machine, they will feed at different rates.

DARNING & EMBROIDERY FOOT

This special foot may be used to create free motion embroidery, free motion monograms, as well as free motion quilting, also known as stippling.

Machine Preparation

•For free motion embroidery and monograms: Set machine for Zigzag Stitch in the width you desire. The stitch length will be controlled by the movement of your hands.

•For free motion quilting (stippling): Set machine to Straight

Stitch. The stitch length will be controlled by the movement of your hands.
