Set Pattern Selector for Straight Stitching speed basting With the basting stitch that is built into your sewing machine, you can produce basting stitches of any length up to two inches. Thus, you can choose just the right length for your sewing job, considering the weight of your fabric and how securely the pieces need to be held together. A few of the many sewing jobs for which you will find speed basting particularly useful are: • Joining seams for trial fittings. • Marking construction guidelines. • Basting pleats, hems, and seams. itleedhat N 7 Zig-Zag Foot and Plate Vs" 14/ " FINE 12/ " HO 18 15 Stitch Length Settings for Speed Basting 28 • Stitch: Straight • Stitch Width: 5 only • Needle Position: A\ only • Stitch Length: 6 through FINE • Speed: MIN • Zig-Zag Plate only • Zig-Zag Foot only NOTE: The Even Feed Foot cannot be used for speed basting. Stitch Length The stitch-length dial regulates the length of basting stitches but, because the basting disc changes the interval at which the needle enters the fabric, the numbers on the dial no longer represent stitches per inch. The settings on the dial and the approximate length of the basting stitches they produce are illustrated. The very short stitches produced in the triangle above the FINE area are used to fasten stitching starts.
