For details, refer to “Changing the needle position” (page 47). Quilting Sandwiching batting between the top and bottom layers of fabric is called “quilting”. Quilts can easily be sewn using the optional walking foot and the optional quilting guide. Note ● Only use the walking foot with straight or zigzag stitches. Do not use other patterns. Reverse stitches cannot be sewn with the walking foot. Baste the fabric to be quilted. a b c Remove the presser foot and the presser foot holder. For details, refer to “Removing the presser foot holder” (page 35). Hook the connecting fork of the walking foot onto the needle clamp screw, lower the presser foot lever, and then use the presser foot holder screw to attach the walking foot to the presser bar. a Connecting fork b Needle clamp screw c Presser foot holder screw Select stitch , or . d e CAUTION ● Use the disc-shaped screwdriver to tighten the screw securely. If the screw is loose, the needle may strike the presser foot and cause injury. ● Be sure to turn the handwheel toward the front of the machine to check that the needle does not strike the presser foot. If the needle strikes the presser foot, injury may result. Place one hand on each side of the presser foot, and then evenly guide the fabric while sewing. Note ● When sewing with the walking foot, sew at a speed between slow and medium. 63 3
