Sewing Darning Darning a small hole or a tear before it becomes larger can save a garment. Choose a lightweight thread in a color as close to your garment as possible. 1. Place fabric or stabilizer in position under the hole or tear in your garment. 2. Select a darning stitch. 3. Start sewing above the hole and over it. 4. Once you have sewn across the hole, press the reverse button to set the length of the stitch. Your sewing machine will automatically complete the stitch. 5. By default, the machine will be set to repeat the same size darning square, just continue sewing. Re-select the darning stitch to deactivate repeat. Note: The reverse button icon (1) will disappear, indicating that repeat is activated. Sewing Hems in Heavy Fabric When sewing over seams in extra heavy fabric or a blue jeans hem, the foot can tip as the machine climbs over the seam. Use the multi-purpose tool to balance the height of the presser foot as you sew. One side of the multi-purpose tool is thicker than the other. Use the side that suits the thickness of the seam best. Engage the IDT™ system, see page 24. At the thickest point on the fabric, slow down the sewing speed. Note: Increasing the stitch length may improve the sewing result when sewing hems in heavy fabric. 55

Darning
Darning a small hole or a tear before it becomes larger
can save a garment. Choose a lightweight thread in a
color as close to your garment as possible.
1.
Place fabric or stabilizer in position under the hole or
tear in your garment.
2.
Select a darning stitch.
3.
Start sewing above the hole and over it.
4.
Once you have sewn across the hole, press the
reverse button to set the length of the stitch. Your
sewing machine will automatically complete the
stitch.
5.
By default, the machine will be set to repeat the
same size darning square, just continue sewing.
Re-select the darning stitch to deactivate repeat.
Note: The reverse button icon (1) will disappear, indicating
that repeat is activated.
Sewing Hems in Heavy Fabric
When sewing over seams in extra heavy fabric or a blue
jeans hem, the foot can tip as the machine climbs over
the seam. Use the multi-purpose tool to balance the
height of the presser foot as you sew. One side of the
multi-purpose tool is thicker than the other. Use the side
that suits the thickness of the seam best.
Engage the IDT™ system, see page 24. At the thickest
point on the fabric, slow down the sewing speed.
Note: Increasing the stitch length may improve the sewing
result when sewing hems in heavy fabric.
