Monogram embroidery Ultra-Magic stitch selector: zigzag stitch (depending on size of monogram desired). Central needle position Drop the machine feed. Attach darning foot No.93-040 960-91. Trace the monogram first on a piece of paper end then on the fabric. Place tho material in a darning hoop and lower the presser bar lifter. Hold the needle thread and turn the balance wheel toward you a complete turn until the take-up lever is at its highest point. Lightly pull the needle thread to draw up the bobbin thread. Hold both thread ends until the machine has made a few stitches. Move the hoop slowly and evenly. and follow the traced outlines as if you were writing. If you want to give your monogram dimensional quality, embroider the outlines twice. packing the stitches closely together. Straight-lined monograms can be embroidered with the cording or clear-view sewing foot. Once you have acquired a little practice. you will be able to embroider monograms in fabrics that are not too flimsy without using a darning hoop. • 42 Quilting Ultra-Matic stitch selector: straignt stitch (2) or small zigzag stitch.
