Guiding

the

work

You

may

work

with

or

without

the

frame;

however,

taut

material

can

be

guided

more

easily.

Important:

The

machine

feeds

automa-

tically

but

only

in

a

straight

line.

For

curves

the

work

must

be

guided

by

hand

i.

e.

the

frame

or

the

material

must

be

lightly

held

by

one

or

both

hands

and

should

not

be

pressed

onto

the

sewing

table.

Guiding

with

the

frame:

The

left

hand

must

hold

the

frame

steady,

because

often

the

frame

is

guided

during

sew-

ing

with

this

hand

only.

First

put

your

hand

in

the

position

as

when

darning.

Then

draw

forefinger

back

to

the

inner

edge

of

the

frame.

Extend

the

middle

and

rings

fingers.

Your

hand

now

has

complete

control

of

the

frame

and

the

best

possible

free-

dom

of

movement.

Notice:

Do

not

place

the

forefinger

par-

allel

to

the

thumb,

otherwise

the

move-

ment

of

your

hand

will

be

restricted.

Guiding

without

frame:

-You

can

only

guide

the

work

it

it

is

held

lightly.”

Nevertheless,

It

is

essential

to

hold

the

material

itself

rather

taut.

This

is

the

only

way

the

work

can

be

turned

as

the

design

requires.

Correct:

Place

thumbs

under

the

mate-

rial.

Make

a

fold

if

the

piece

of

work

is

large

(see

diagram).

Guide

near

the

presser

foot.

Scn

Incorrect:

This

way

is

Incorrect

as

pressure

on

the

work

will

result.

Working

sequence

Preparation:

Trace

design

on

the

wrong

side

of

the

material

with

the

aid

of

special

tracing

paper.

See

that

the

motive

is

in

revorse.

The

design

can

also

be

traced

onto

iron

-on

Vilene

and

the

Vilene

ironed

on

to

the

wrong

side

of

the

material.

(Especially

recom-

mended

for

rough

and

irregularly

wo-

ven

fabrics

are

difficult

to

draw

on.)

If

a

design

that

is

to

be

used

often

trace

on

thin

Vilene

and

then

transfer

it

onto

the

material.

Vilene

can

be

tacked

on

to

a

garment

to

stiffen
