Basting stitches prog ccj -- 09 - -3+ GA Feed dog: lowered Sewing thread: normal sewing thread or basting thread For trying on a garment, we recommend securing the parts previously with basting stitches. Place the workpiece under the sewing foot. Sew one stitch. After that, pull the material by the required stitch length to the rear. Repeat this procedure until basting is completed. In order to avoid shift ing of the material plies during securing of pat terned materials, insert dress pins crosswise to the basting direction. Shifting of the material plies is thus largely avoided. Basting at 6 mm stitch length prog Co -- 00 KK -3 GA Stitch length: 6 mm For this application do not lower the feed dog.
