Using the walking foot

With the walking foot, both pieces of fabric are fed

evenly by the feed dogs and the teeth on the presser

foot. This is useful when sewing fabrics that are hard

to feed such as vinyl and leather and when sewing

fabrics that easily slip such as velvets or when

quilting.

Use the screwdriver to attach the walking foot.

■Attaching the walking foot

Useful Sewing Tips

Various ways to achieve better results for your sewing projects are described below. Refer to these tips

when sewing your project.

Trial sewing

After you have set up the machine with the thread

and needle appropriate for the type of fabric being

sewn, the machine automatically sets the thread

tension and stitch length and width for the stitch that

is selected. However, a trial piece of fabric should be

sewn since, depending on the type of fabric and

stitching being sewn, the desired results may not be

achieved.

For the trial sewing, use a piece of fabric and thread

that are the same as those used for your project, and

check the thread tension and stitch length and width.

Since the results differ depending on the type of

stitching and the number of layers of fabric sewn,

perform the trial sewing under the same conditions

that will be used with your project.

Changing the sewing direction

aWhen the stitching reaches a corner, stop the

sewing machine.

Leave the needle lowered (in the fabric). If the

needle remained up when the machine stopped

sewing, press (“Needle Position” button) to

lower the needle.

bRaise the presser foot lever, and then turn the

fabric.

Turn the fabric using the needle as a pivot.

cLower the presser foot lever and continue

sewing.

Sewing curves

Stop sewing, and then slightly change the sewing

direction to sew around the curve. For details on

sewing with an even seam allowance, refer to

“Sewing an even seam allowance” (page 66).

When sewing along a curve while using a zigzag

stitch, select a shorter stitch length in order to obtain

a finer stitch.

Useful Sewing Tips 65

Sewing thick fabrics

■If the fabric does not fit under the presser foot

If the fabric does not fit easily under the presser

foot, raise the presser foot lever even higher to

bring the presser foot to its highest position.

■If thick seams are being sewn and the fabric does

not feed at the beginning of stitching

Zigzag foot “J” is equipped with a feature that

keeps the presser foot level.

aSewing direction

aWhen you encounter a seam that is too thick

to feed under the foot, raise the presser foot

(0.0 mm), the distance from the needle position to

the right side of the presser foot is 12 mm

(1/2 inch). If the stitch width is changed (between

0 and 7.0 mm (1/4 inch)), the needle position will

also change. By changing the stitch width and

sewing with the right side of the presser foot

aligned with the edge of the fabric, a seam

allowance can be sewn with a fixed width.

pattern spans over both pieces.

Hand quilting stitch

You can duplicate the look of a hand quilted stitch by

using monofilament thread in the needle, 50 to 60

weight cotton thread in the bobbin, and increasing

the needle tension.

The needle tension will need to be determined by the

thickness of your batting.

Piecing

Sewing together two pieces of fabric is called

“piecing”. The fabric pieces should be cut with a

6.5 mm (1/4 inch) seam allowance.
