Decorative sewing/Specialty techniques When you start to sew again, the machine will automatically make a taper at 45°. The present sewing operation is indicated in the window. • To start the pattern without a taper, press the tie-off button (36) twice before starting to sew. Use -/+ button A to change the width of the satin stitch before sewing. • To sew a pattern without a taper, press the tie-off button (36) four times before starting to sew. • To change the width of the satin stitch and begin sewing with a taper, press the tie-off button (36) two times, use -/+ button A to select the width, and press the tie-off button one more time. The stitch will begin in the taper, then stitch at the width you have selected. Now you can sew simple but perfect tapering motifs. Cross-stitch Cross-stitch embroidery has always been a wonderful traditional, embroidery technique. What used to be stitched by hand with a great deal of effort can now be sewn with the 2038 and 2048 with astonishing ease and speed. With cross-stitch No. 53/54 (2048) or No. 32/33 (2038), design your own cross-stitch combinations. These patterns look as if they were hand-embroidered and give a special touch to table linen, towels or garments. Tips for cross-stitching: • Sew slowly. • Use foot No. 2A. • Place stabilizer under the fabric. • You can embroider on Aida cloth as used for hand cross- stitching. The length and width of the cross-stitches of your expression can be altered depending on the count/size of the Aida cloth squares. • Use decorative threads to make your cross-stitch look more professional. 5:3
