Brother SM2700 Operating Guide

—

Sew with the center of the presser foot
aligned along the center of the two pieces
of fabric.

After sewing is finished, remove the paper
and the basting stitches.

Overedge stitching

These stitches are used to join together seams and finish
them in one operation. Elastic Overlock Stitch: for
sewing stretch materials.

Put the fabric under the presser foot so
that the seamline (or arrowhead point) is
approximately 3 mm (1/8 inch) to the left
of the center of the presser foot.

• If the seam allowance is wider than the stitch

pattern, trim away any excess fabric after
stitching.

Memo

● When sewing the Elastic Overlock Stitch,

position the fabric so that its edge is on the
left of the needle.

Feather stitching

Use the Feather Stitch as a decorative top stitch when
embroidering or when hemming blankets, tablecloths,
or draperies.

Place the fabric right side up and sew 1 cm
(3/8 inch) from the edge of the fabric.

Trim close to the stitching.

The stitch will prevent the fabric from unravelling.
