In the correct zigzag stitch, the bobbin threads will not show on the top side
of fabric and the top threads will show slightly on the bottom side. See
below for the correct appearance. To match this appearance, adjust your top
tension.

Just Right:
Minimize the amount

excessive puckering or
causing the bobbin
thread to show on the
top side. Results vary
with fabric, thread and
sewing conditions.
