needle. The decorative thread or ribbon will stitch out on the underneath side of fabric while
embroidering with the fabric wrong side facing up. Bobbin work embroidery is created using the bobbin
work patterns included with this machine.
Refer to the “Quick Reference Guide” about the bobbin work patterns.
