Set the Stitch Length between 0.3 and 4.5. (See Page 19) 3. Set the Stitch Width between 1.0 and 6.5.(See Page 19) SEW ALONG: Scallop Stitch 1. Set the stitch selection buttons to 39. 2. Set the Stitch Length to number 0.5. 3. Set the Stitch Width to 6.0. 4. Place the fabric under the All-Purpose Foot with the right-hand edge of the fabric lined up with the desired seam guide line on the right side of the needle plate. Lower the presser foot, then step on the foot control to begin sewing. Sew 2 to 3 stitches and then backstitch (See Page 20) to reinforce the seam. ✓ Use a stabilizer (see Appendix) on the underside of the fabric if there is gathering or puckering as you sew. Decorative stitching can be used almost anywhere on your project! ✓ It may be helpful to decrease the upper tension by 1 or 2 numbers when sewing decorative stitches. This will help prevent the bobbin thread from possibly showing on the top when sewing denser stitches. 21
