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.

Stitching cylindrical
pieces
Removing the flat bed attachment makes it easier to sew
cylindrical pieces such as cuffs and pant legs, or hard-
to-reach areas.
Slide the flat bed attachment to the left to
1
release it.
1 Flat bed attachment
With the flat bed attachment removed,
free-arm sewing is possible.

Note
● When you are finished with free-arm
sewing, install the flat bed attachment back
in its original position.
Slide the part that you wish to sew onto
2
the arm, and then sew from the top.
Sewing with a twin needle
(Option)
We have designed your machine so you can sew with
this needle and two top threads. You can use the same
color or two different colors of thread for making
decorative stitches.
1 Twin needle
CAUTION
●
Use only twin needles that have been
made for this machine (part code:
X57521-021:2.0/75 with a 2 mm width).
Other needles could break and damage
the machine.
●
Make sure that the needle does not strike
the presser foot.
●
Do not sew with bent needles. The
needle could break and injure you.
■ Attaching the twin needle
Attach the twin needle in the same way as a single
needle (see page 7–8). The flat side of the needle
should face toward the back and the rounded side
should face toward you.
