VARIOUS STITCHES  —————————————————————————————————————————————————

Your stitch pattern may sometimes turn out poorly, depending on the type or thickness of fabric, the stabilizer 
material used, sewing speed, etc. If your sewing does not turn out well, sew trial stitches using the same 
conditions as the real sewing, and adjust the stitch pattern as shown below.

● The character stitches "034" (No. 31 + No. 

34+ No. 35) are used for making 
adjustments.
