Memo
The Thread Trimming Function is originally set
to trim excess thread jumps (threads linking
parts of the color steps, etc.). Depending on
the type of thread and fabric that are used, an
end of the upper thread may remain on the
surface of the fabric at the beginning of the
stitching. After embroidering is finished, cut off
this excess thread.
*If the setting has been turned off, trim the
excess thread jumps using scissors after the
pattern is finished.
See page 175 for information on the thread
trimming function.
Memo
If there is thread left over from the beginning
of sewing, it may be sewn over as you
continue embroidering the pattern, making it
very difficult to deal with the thread after the
pattern is finished. Trim the threads at the
beginning.
