Note
• To achieve the best results when sewing character/decorative stitches, check the table below for the proper fabric/
needle/thread combinations.
• Other factors, such as the type or thickness of the fabric being sewn or the type of stabilizer material used, also affect the
stitching. Therefore, be sure to sew a few trial stitches before sewing your project.
• Since shrinkage or bunched stitches may result when satin stitches are sewn, be sure to affix stabilizer material to the
fabric.
• While sewing, guide the fabric with your hands so that it will be fed straight.
Fabric When sewing on stretch fabrics, lightweight fabrics, or fabrics with coarse weaves, attach stabilizer on the wrong side
of the fabric. If you do not wish to do so, place the fabric on a thin paper such as tracing paper.
Thread #50 - #60
Needle With lightweight, regular, or stretch fabrics: Brother ballpoint needle (golden colored)

CAUTION
• When sewing 7 mm satin stitch patterns and the
stitches are bunched, lengthen the stitch length. If
you continue sewing when the stitches are
bunched, the needle may bend or break (see
“Adjusting the Stitch Length” on page 42).
Memo
If the fabric is pulled or pushed during sewing,
the pattern may not be sewn correctly. In
addition, depending on the pattern, there may
be movement to the left and right as well as to
the front and back. Therefore, guide the fabric
with your hands so that it will be fed straight.
