REINFORCED STRAIGHT STITCH

Machine setting

1. Stitch pattern: 1

2. Stitch width: 0 or 5

3. Stitch length: stretch

4. Thread tension: 2 – 5

5. Presser foot: Utility foot A

This stitch is stronger than regular

straight stitch, due to the fact that it is a

triple and elastic stitch.

The reinforced straight stitch can be

used for heavy stretch fabrics, for crotch

seams which are subject to considerable

strain and for topstitching in heavy

fabrics.

BUTTON SEWING

Machine setting:

1. Stitch: 2

2. Stitch width: Adjust as necessary

3. Stitch length: Any

4. Thread tension: 3 – 7

5. Feed teeth: Lowered

Mark the fabric where the button is to

be located. Lower the feed teeth. Place

the material under the presser foot ankle.

Place the button on marking and lower

the presser bar so that the presser foot

ankle is between the holes of the button.

Hold the thread ends to one side. Turn

the handwheel and check to be sure that

the needle goes into the holes of the

button. Sew 5-6 stitches. Set the stitch

width dial to 0 and lock the threads with

a few stitches.

Note: Do not use this technique if the button is

less than 1 cm (3/8”) in diameter.

Raise the feed teeth after button sewing.
