Troubleshooting

Iron the fabric on a medium setting while slightly damp, or use a pressing cloth. Ensure the fabric is not over-dried in the machine.

Stitching seems to be pulling or puckering

Ensure you are using a fine needle appropriate for lightweight fabrics and a suitable thread. Adjust tension if necessary. Test stitching on a scrap piece first.
