Attaching stabilizer (backing) to fabric
In order to prevent shrinkage of the stitching or misaligned
patterns, we recommend that stabilizer (backing) be used for
embroidering.
a
Using a steam iron, affix the iron-on stabilizer
(backing) to the back of the fabric.
• Use a piece of stabilizer which is larger than the
embroidery frame being used.

PREVIEWING THE IMAGE
Memo
• Embroidering can be started while the preview
image is displayed in the embroidering screen. If
the preview image is displayed in any screen other
than the embroidering screen, embroidering cannot
be started.
PREPARING THE FABRIC
CAUTION
• Your machine can embroider fabric that is up
to 2 mm (approx. 5/64 inch) thick. If thicker
fabric is embroidered, the needle may break
and cause injury.
CAUTION
• When embroidering on thin or stretch fabrics,
fabrics with a coarse weave or fabrics that
easily allow the stitching to shrink, be sure to
use stabilizer (backing) for embroidering. Not
using a stabilizer (backing) may cause the
needle to break and cause injury.
Memo
• When embroidering light or open designs on thin
fabrics, such as organza or lawn, use a water-
soluble stabilizer (backing). Water-soluble
stabilizers dissolve when washed, allowing you to
create beautiful embroidery that is not stiff.
• When embroidering fabric that should not be
ironed or when embroidering an area that is difficult
to iron, hoop a layer of the stabilizer (backing)
under the fabric in the embroidery frame without
ironing it.
