Whether
working with
terry-cloth
or woven
fabric,
with
the
help
of the darning
foot
and
the program
G, stitch
width
2.5 -5 ‘l,
you can
embroider
initials
of
your own design.
Sewing
this
way
without a set
pattern does,
however, require
a
little
practice.
— Draw
the
initials onto the
fabric with
an
Invisible-ink
marker.
— Drop
the feed
dog.
Insert the darning
foot
and
bring it into
darning position
(see page
51>.
— Place Avalon
under
the
fabric.
— Spread
the fabric in
an embroidery
hoop
and
embroider using
the zigzag
stitch.
— Tie
off the threads
and remove
the
Avalon.
(Any
remaining
pieces dissolve
in water.)
Tip; By
sewing
quickly and
moving the
mate
rial slowly,
you will
achieve
dense stitches.
When
embroidering
on terry-cloth,
the mono
gram must
first be sewn
with a
narrow zigzag
stitch and
then overstitched
with a broader
zigzag
stitch. In this
way the terry-cloth
loops
are
completely sewn
over.
Embroidering
block letters
is somewhat
easier.
Here the
feed
dog
is
not dropped
which
means that
free
sewing
is no longer neces
sary.
You
can simply
sew along
the lines
with
program G,
stitch
width
2
5 -. 5 ‘I
— Iron the
fabric or use
a paper underlay.
— Before
sewing,
draw
the monogram
onto
the
fabric.
—
Sew along the
lines
you
have
sketched
using the
zigzag stitch.
