ENGLISH CREATING BOBBIN WORK Required Materials ■ Bobbin case and cord guide bobbin cover a Bobbin case (gray) There is a notch at the location marked by "A". b Cord guide bobbin cover (for bobbin work and attaching cords with single hole) There are ribs "B" on the back of the bobbin cover. The ribs press down the bobbin so it is not lifted out when thick thread is being fed from it. ■ Lower thread We recommend the following types of threads for bobbin work. No.5 or finer hand embroidery thread or decorative thread ■ Upper thread Sewing machine embroidery thread (polyester thread) or monofilament (transparent nylon) thread. If you do not wish for the upper thread to be visible, we recommend using monofilament thread or polyester light weight thread (50wt. or above) that is the same color as the lower thread. ■ Needle Use a needle appropriate for the upper thread and fabric being used. Refer to "Fabric/Thread/Needle Combinations" (in the chapter "CHANGING THE NEEDLE") in the Operation Manual. ■ Presser foot Utility stitches or decorative stitches: Monogramming foot "N" Free-motion sewing: Free-motion quilting foot "C", Free-motion open toe quilting foot "O" or Free-motion echo quilting foot "E" Flexible woven ribbon Fine embroidery ribbon (silk or silk-like material) (3.5 mm (approx. 1/8 inch) or less, recommended) * If ribbon is to be used, we recommend that tension not be applied. Refer to page 6 for more detailed instructions. Note • Do not use thread heavier than No.5 hand embroidery thread. • Some threads may not be appropriate for bobbin work. Be sure to sew trial stitches before sewing on your project. ■ Fabric Be sure to sew trial stitches on a piece of scrap fabric, which includes the same threads and fabric as what is being used in your project. Note • The sewing results may be affected by the type of fabric used. Before sewing your project, be sure to sew trial stitches on a piece of scrap fabric that is the same as the fabric used in the project. 3
