Stitch Counter Sewing (artista 730 only)

The Stitch Counter function of the artista 730 is not only for

darning and buttonholes . It can also be used to sew multiple

copies of the same line of stitching, each precisely the same

length.

A variety of stitches can be sewn using the Stitch Counter

function. Several are found in the Practical stitch menu, such

as Zigzag and Blindstitch. Others include the Blanket and

Double Blanket stitches from the Quilting stitch menu.

• Draw three parallel lines on the fabric, ½” apart. Select stitch

#329. Select the Stitch Counter function. Stitch along the first

marked line. When desired length is sewn, press Quick

Reverse; the machine stops at the end of the current stitch

pattern. The line of stitches is now programmed.

• Move the fabric to the beginning of the second marked line.

Sew. The artista 730 automatically stops at the end of the

programmed line of stitches.

• Stitch the programmed seam again, this time on the third line.
