1. In general, ne threads and needles are used for sewing ne fabrics, thicker threads and needles are used for sewing heavy fabrics.
2. Always test thread and needle size on a small piece of fabric which will be used for actual sewing.
3. Use the same thread for needle and bobbin.
4. Use a stabilizer or place a backing for ne or stretchy fabrics, and select the correct presser foot.
5. It is recommended that a 90/14 needle should be used when embroidering on heavyweight fabrics or stabilizing products (for example, denim, puffy foam, etc.). A 75/11 needle may bend or break, which could result in injury.
6. For transparent nylon thread, always use needle 90/14 - 100/16. The same thread is usually used for the bobbin thread and upper threading.
7. For good quality embroidery designs, recommend to use a 75/11 needle when embroidering.

Useful skills

Various ways to achieve better results for your sewing projects are described below. Refer to these tips when sewing your project.
The results depend on types of fabrics and stitches. Please use the same fabric of the project and do a sewing test in advance.
For the trial sewing, use a piece of fabric and thread that are same as those used for your project and check the thread tension and stitch length and width.
Since the results differ depending on types of stitching and layers of fabric sewn, perform the trial sewing under the same conditions that will be used with your project.
vReverse sewing
Reverse stitching is used to secure the threads at the beginning and at the end of a seam.
Press the reverse button and sew 4-5 stitches.
The machine will sew forward when the button is released.
vSewing curves
Slightly change the sewing direction to sew around the curve.
vSewing corners
Stop the sewing machine when you reach a corner.
Lower the needle into the fabric. Raise the presser foot. Use the needle as a pivot and turn the fabric 90°.
Lower the presser foot and resume sewing.
vSewing stretch fabrics
Baste the pieces of fabric together, and then sew without stretching the fabric.

vSewing thin fabrics
When sewing thin fabrics, the stitches may become misaligned or the fabric may not feed correctly. If this occurs, place thin paper or stabilizer material under the fabric and sew it together with the fabric.
When you have nished sewing, tear off any
excess paper.
Stabilizer material or paper
①
Page 27
vSewing heavy fabric
The black button on the right side of the presser foot will lock the presser foot in a horizontal position if you push it in before lowering the presser foot.
This ensures even feeding at the beginning of a seam and helps when sewing multiple layers of fabrics such as sewing over seams when hemming jeans.
When you reach the point of an increased thickness, lower the needle and raise the presser foot. Press the toe of the foot to the horizontal line and push in the black button, then lower the foot and continue sewing.
The black button releases automatically after sewing few stitches.
