Embroidering attractive finishes
There are many factors that go into beautiful embroidery.
Using the appropriate stabilizer (page 64) and hooping the
fabric in the frame (page 64) are two important factors
mentioned earlier. Another important point is the
appropriateness of the needle and thread being used. See the
explanation of threads below.

Upper thread Use embroidery thread intended for use with
this machine. Other embroidery threads may
not yield optimum results.
Bobbin thread Use the included bobbin pre-wound with 60
weight embroidery bobbin thread or
recommended 60 weight embroidery bobbin
thread.
Note
• Do not leave objects in the range of motion of the
embroidery frame. The frame may strike the object
and cause a poor finish to the embroidery pattern.
• When embroidering on large garments (especially
jackets or other heavy fabrics), do not let the fabric
hang off the table. Otherwise, the embroidery unit
cannot move freely, and the pattern may not turn
out as planned.
