Basting Zigzag foot Magic needle Thread: 30 Basting Zigzag: 4 Stitch length: 112/ -4 Needle position: left Automatic: Blindstrtch Drop feed control: sewing This is how the material is placed under the foot. Important! The basting stitches do not form in the centre of the foot but only at the left hand swing of the needle. Place the basting line at the left side of the foot. (Holding the work taut from the front and rear ensures correct guiding.) The magic needle has two eyes, one above the other. The lower eye is threaded for regular sewing. For basting, thread the upper eye. Choose stitch length according to material and work, not too short or the basting may not easily be removed.. It is important to pin first, especially for cross stripes that have to match up exactly. To secure the threads Sew a few stitches with zz on O. at the beginning and end of seam.
