Elastic Stitching
You can use the Elastic Stitch for mending, sewing
elastic or joining fabric. Each is explained below.
Set the pattern selection dial to the Elastic Stitch.
Mending
1
Set the stitch length dial between " " and
“2.5”.
2
Place the reinforcement fabric under the area
you want to mend.
3
Following the line of the tear, sew using the
Elastic Stitch as illustrated.
Sewing Elastic
1
Place the elastic on the fabric.
2
As you sew, stretch the elastic in front of and
behind the presser foot.
Joining Fabric
You can use the Elastic Stitch to join two pieces of
fabric together. In addition, it is very effective
when sewing knitted fabrics. If you are using
nylon thread, the stitch will not be visible.
1
Put the edge of the two pieces of fabric
together and center them under the presser
foot.
2
Sew them together using the Elastic Stitch.
Make sure you keep the two fabric edges close
together.
Scallop Stitching
This machine automatically produces a Scallop
Stitch for decorative edging.
1
Set the pattern selection dial to the Scallop
Stitch.
2
Sew the Scallop Stitch along the edge of the
material.
3
If desired, trim around the scallop with
scissors to create a scalloped edge. Be careful
not to cut the thread.
