If so desired, use a template or draw your design
on the stabilizer to allow for ease of stitching.
Remember, your stitches with your decorative
thread will be on the underneath side of your
fabric and the stabilizer will be on the top of the
wrong side of your fabric.
*
For information about using free motion open toe
quilting foot “O” refer to “Free Motion Quilting” on
page S-40.
Note
• Do not sew reverse/reinforcement stitches
at the end of the stitching, otherwise the
threads may become tangled or the needle
may break. In addition, it will be difficult to
pull the bobbin thread up to the wrong side
of the fabric.
Note
• Do not press the “Thread Cutter” button to
cut the threads, otherwise the machine may
be damaged.

Otherwise, use an awl to pull up the bobbin
thread.
Note
• To ensure threads do not come undone
after being tied place a drop of fabric glue
on knots.
