A trial piece of fabric should be sewn. Use a piece of
fabric and thread that are the same as those used for
your project, and check the thread tension and stitch
length and width.

Sewing thick fabrics

■ If the fabric does not fit under the presser
foot
If the fabric does not fit easily under the presser foot,
raise the presser foot lever even higher to bring the
presser foot to its highest position.
CAUTION
●
If fabric more than 6 mm (15/64 inch)
thick is sewn or if the fabric is pushed
with too much force, the needle may
bend or break.

Sewing thin fabrics

When sewing thin fabrics, the stitching may become
misaligned or the fabric may not feed correctly. If this
occurs, place thin paper or stabilizer material under the
fabric and sew it together with the fabric. When you
have finished sewing, tear off any excess paper.
1 Stabilizer material or paper

Sewing stretch fabrics

First, baste the pieces of fabric together, and then sew
without stretching the fabric.
