FREE-MOTION EMBROIDERY

In free-motion embroidery, you control the

direction and speed of fabric movement by

means of an embroidery hoop. Stitch length is

determined by the speed at which the hoop is

moved and zig-zag stitch width is varied by

the direction of hoop movement. The hoop

should be one designed for machine use.

• Stitch; Plain Zig-Zag § (or Straight Stitch | )

• Stitch Width: 2 through 5

(or Straight Stitch)

• Needle Position:/^

Hesitation embroidery is free-motion embroi

dery done at machine settings used for speed

basting (except stitch iength). The time iapse

that occurs between needle penetrations per

mits unhurried hoop movement (appreciated by

the beginner), it also permits unusually long

stitches, as weii as short ones for unique

decorative effects.

1. Attach feed cover plate, as instructed on

page 5, and set machine for speed basting.

See page 28.

2. Trace or transfer design outline to fabric

and center in embroidery hoop. Designs

and motifs with shaggy outlines and tex

tured surfaces are usually best.

3. Position hoop under needle, lower presser

bar, and raise bobbin thread.

4. Move hoop back and forth, filling design

with long and short stitches as in regular

free-motion embroidery.
