It can also be helpful to use a Satin Stitch Foot (additional accessory for some machine models), which has a groove on the bottom to allow dense stitching to pass freely underneath. Create interesting surface embellishment using the zigzag stitch to sew over lightweight cords or yarns. If your machine has adjustable stitch width and stitch length, choose a stitch width setting that is wide enough to cover the cord, without actually stitching into the cord. Choose a stitch length setting that is long enough to see the cord without covering it up. It can be helpful to use an Open Toe Foot (additional accessory for some machine models), which provides a clear area in front of the needle as you sew. Use a slow speed and take your time for maximum control. Sew the zigzag stitch to create texture in fabric. Experiment with various thread types and colors. If your machine has adjustable stitch length and stitch width, try different settings to customize the look you want for your project. For denser stitches such as when sewing a satin stitch, use a Satin Stitch Foot (additional accessory for some machine models). If using thicker threads such as 12wt cotton, use a larger size needle so that the thread passes freely through it. It is recommended to use a stabilizer underneath the fabric to help support the stitches. Use the zigzag stitch to sew over ribbons and trims. It's an easy way to embellish projects. Set the zigzag width based on the width of the ribbon. If your machine has adjustable stitch length, the stitch length should be set at a fairly long setting so the ribbon is visible between the stitches. It is helpful to use an Open Toe Foot (additional accessory for some machine models), which provides a clear view of the sewing area. Use the zigzag stitch to attach buttons. Disengage or cover the machine's feed teeth (see your machine manual). It is helpful to use the Button Sewing Foot (additional accessory for some machine models) which helps hold the button securely and provides a clearer view of the stitching area than does the All-Purpose Foot.
