Hoop the fabric so the right side of the fabric
is facing down with the stabilizer lying on the
top. Use an embroidery frame that fits the
size of the pattern and then attach the frame

Note
Since bobbin work is sewn from the wrong side of
the fabric, the pattern shown in the screen appears
as a mirror image of the final sewn embroidery. If
necessary, flip the image to preview it. In addition,
when sewing with the thread colors shown in the
sewing screen, select a bobbin thread that matches
what is shown in the screen.

Memo
With embroidery patterns for bobbin work, the size
and thread density cannot be changed. In addition,
the automatic thread cutting function cannot be
turned on.
Memo
We recommend a setting between 6 and 8 for the
upper thread tension.
CAUTION
Always use a stabilizer material for embroidery.
Otherwise, the needle may break and cause
injuries. Not using a stabilizer material may result
in a poor finish to your project.
