SEWING AN EMBROIDERY PATTERN
Sewing Attractive Finishes
There are many factors that go into sewing beautiful embroidery. Using the appropriate stabilizer
fabric (see page 5-20) and setting the fabric in the frame (see page 5-21) are two important factors
mentioned earlier. Another important point is the appropriateness of the needle and thread being
used. See the explanation of threads below.
Note
If you use threads other than those listed above, the embroidery may not sew out correctly.
CAUTION
• Do not embroider fabrics that are too thick. To check the fabric thickness, attach the
embroidery frame to the embroidery unit, and use the “Needle Position” button to
raise the needle. If there is a space between the presser foot and the fabric, the fabric
can be embroidered. If there is no space, do not embroider the fabric. Otherwise, the
needle may break, resulting in injury.
• In the case of thick terry cloth towels we recommend that you place a piece of water
soluble stabilizer on the top surface of the towel. This will help to reduce the nap of
the toweling and result in more attractive embroidery.
• Be careful when sewing overlapping patterns. The needle may not easily pierce the
fabric, causing the needle to break.
CAUTION
• Before embroidering, check that there is enough thread in the bobbin. If you continue sewing
without enough thread in the bobbin, the thread may tangle.
• Do not leave objects in the range of motion of the embroidery frame. The frame may strike
the object and cause a poor finish to the embroidery pattern.
• When embroidering on large garments (especially jackets or other heavy fabrics), do not let
the fabric hang over the table. Otherwise, the embroidery unit can not move freely, and the
pattern may not turn out as planned.
■ Needle Plate Cover
Under some conditions based on the type of fabric,
stabilizar or thread being used there may some looping in
the upper thread. In this case, attach the included needle
plate cover to the needle plate. To remove the needle plate
cover, place your fingernail in the groove and lift the plate
out.
