JUIdLlV evvii u-'' i General notes on decorative sewing To enhance your own home textiles or garments your Expression offers you a wide variety of fancy and decorative stitches. Create a greater variety of embellishments by combining different patterns, colors and sizes. Use specialty decorative threads to enhance the lovely stitching. Always use stabilizers under fabric when sewing decorative stitches. Properly stabilizing your fabric will help eliminate distortion of your decorative stitches. The following recommendations apply to all decorative sewing: The stitch length and width can be altered as desired. Lower the upper thread tension to between 2-3. Adjust as needed so bobbin thread does not pull to the top side of your project. Your embroidery results will be much prettier if your tension is properly adjusted. Presser foot No. 1 (for dual feed) and No. 2 (without dual feed) are most suitable for decorative work. We recommend presser foot. No. 2 for heavier fabrics.
