I I I I I I 3 j j Straight stitch Program 00 is the basic straight stitch with center needle position. The stitch length can be increased up to 6 mm as required. Some sewing jobs can be done more easily by changing the needle position, e.g. topstitching a collar or sewing in a zipper. With keys 7, 8 and 9 you can select the Creative’s 19 needle positions. When doing so make sure that the needle is in the highest position.
Zigzag stitch Program 02 With zigzag stitch 02, all edges can be serged easily. Make sure that while serging an edge the needle goes into the fabric and over the edge alternately. In program 32 the width of the zigzag stitch changes from the right needle position on. the stitch width It you press the key” changes starting from the left needle position, e.g. for eyelet embroidery and cording work. ‘ 4 .
Prog. 04 J Prog. 05 Elastic blindstitch Program 05 This special blindstitch is particularly suitable for elastic fabrics. It is not necessary to serge the fabric edge because of the integrated zigzag stitch. • For instructions see description on the left. . .. t C •ø C. . C U, 0 U, U, a) C) Stretch triple straight stitch Program 01 This program is used for sewing all seams where great strength is needed, e.g. inside trouser seams. The heavier the fabric, the longer the stitch length you need.
, ,‘ ‘ v ‘ ç A 1’, t\ /\/‘/‘/‘/ A /‘JV’/ v ,, 4 Stretch triple zigzag stitch Program 22 The stretch triple zigzag stitch produces a highly elastic and decorative seam which is very suitable for hems on Tshirts and underwear. • Serge the edge of the hem. • Fold the hem inwards to the desired width, • Topstitch the hem from the face side. 104 Elastic stitch Program 03 Due to its high elasticity, this stitch is used for sewing elastic, e.g. on underwear. • Cut off the old elastic close to the edge.
N N N N N N N N N N N N N N 3 Overlock stitches Programs 06, 30-38 For knit and other stretch materials, the Creative offers a selection of overlock stitches. These join two plies of fabric and serge them in one operation. They have a higher elasticity than usual stitches, they are more durable and what is more, they are very quick to sew.
Pullover stitch Program 36 Program 31 Used together with the knit-edge foot (special accessories), this stitch can even be used for open-knit fabrics. Fashion-knit garment sections can also be joined effortlessly with this stitch. 106 TIP: To prevent the seam from stretching while sewing, it is advisable to add a woollen thread under light tension.
__________________________________________ 3 J j J Sewing on buttons Program 09 With program 09 you can sew on two- or four hole buttons without any problems. • Remove the sewing foot. • Place the button on the place marked. • Turn the handwheel towards you and position the button so that the needle enters the left hole in the button. • Now lower the presser foot lifter; the button is now held by the shank. • Now sew on the button. Make sure that the needle also enters the right hole in the button.
Automatic bartack Programs 24 + 25 With program No. 24 you can sew a fully auto matic bartack for strengthening zippers or pocket openings or for attaching belt loops. If you choose a larger size bartack, the stitch density will automatically be increased. Arrowhead bartack Program 26 The arrowhead bartack is always used for seam ends subjected to great strain and possible fraying, e.g. on skirt slashes or pockets. Using a thicker thread the arrowhead bartacks looks like hand-stitched.
Automatic darning Program 28 is mainly for strengthening damaged areas of fabric. • Stitch over the damaged area at the required length. • Press the reverse key; the machine finishes sewing the darning program and the darning length is thus saved. The saved darning length can now be repeated as often as needed. $1 rrritf .Lriti4 l+•tlti +Itei,41 t4 Pt’ tt N:t III [j 1 L C 0 4 0 - - — Depending on the type of material, the darning pattern may shift to one side.

Set the needle at its highest position by turning the handwheel, and push the pin of the darning foot fully into the hole of the sewing foot holder slightly pressing the darning foot between thumb and forefinger. When doing this, the guide fork should place itself around the presser bar and the wire must be behind the fixing screw.
j j 3 3 .1 I 3 • J _‘ iI I Lace trimmings You can beautify table cloths, napkins or even garments with lace trimmings. Lace edges Program 02 Program 00 Serge the raw edges of the fabric with zigzag or overlock stitches. Place the lace onto the fabric so that the edges of the fabric and lace overlap slightly. Then stitch the lace onto the face side. You can achieve a particularly flat seam if you are joining lace and fabric with a covering stitch.
f C 4’ Gathering with straight stitch Program 00 If you wish to gather sleeves, skirts, cuffs or va lances, this technique is the easiest and most commonly used. On the face side of the fabric mark the lines of the gathering seams. Sew the first seam holding the fabric a little taut as the fabric will gather easily at an increased stitch length. Leave about 10 cm (4 or 5 inches) of thread protruding at the beginning and end of the seam.
.3 j I I I ‘4 ‘4 ‘4 Covering seams Where seam allowances and serged edges are in j J convenient, covering seams are used. These seams are extremely flat, they join bordering fabric plies and serge them at the same time. This produces the typical flatlock effect which lends a professional look to collar plackets or raglan seams. J I j j j 3 Cross stitch Program 19 Owing to its high elasticity, the cross stitch is very suitable for decorative hems, e.g. on T-shirts and underwear.
> Fancy elastic stitch Program 18 The fancy elastic stitch is very useful for materials that need a flat seam, for example terry cloth. • Place the two fabric edges so that they overlap by about 2 cm (3/4 of an inch> and overstitch each edge with fancy elastic stitches. Guilt stitch Program 11 In traditional quilting three fabric layers are joined with small hand-made stitches.This is done quicker and more practical with the sewing machine, eq. with program 11, see page 143 (Quilt and patch work foot).
J j Darning with elastic stitch Program 03 The elastic stitch is very suitable for repairing holes, tears and damaged areas. Depending on the size of the damaged area, sew over this area with rows of elastic stitches until it is well covered. When doing so, make sure that the stitch rows overlap each other. When mending tears, frayed edges or small holes, it is advisable to lay a piece of fabric of the same color which is slightly larger than the damaged area on the wrong side of the material.
L 1 Smocking Smocking is a technique with which several seams sewn parallel to each other produce a gathering effect which is mainly used for children’s wear and corsetry. There are different techniques: 1> Smocking with gimp thread (non-elastic) o Gimp thread Programs 14 orlB For beautiful smocking effects you will need two and one half to three times the desired finished width of fabric. The smocked section is usually made before the rest of the garment.
Roll hemming with hemmer No. 7 Program 00 Roll hemming secures the edges of chiffon, lightknit and nylon fabrics in a tidy and durable way. Stretch the fabric before you start sewing. Doing this, you will see in which direction the fabric stretches because the hemming has to be sewn on this side. insert the hemmer. Lower the foot, sew a few stitches and pull the fabric into the scroll of the hemmer with the threads of the seam beginning.
Sewing in zippers 4) 0 N C) Program 00 There are different ways to sew in zippers. For skirts we recommend the zipper concealed on both sides, for ladies’ or mens’ trousers, the zipper concealed on one side. Several types of zippers are available at retail outlets. We recom mend metal zippers for strong fabrics such as jeans. For all other materials we recommend a plastic zipper. For all types of zippers it is important to sew right up close to the teeth of the zipper.
J A • Sew in the second half of the zipper parallel and at the same distance. • Stop shortly before the seam end and leave the needle in the material. Raise the sewing foot and open the zipper. • Now the seam can be finished. aa N C C 0 0 C 0 0 I- 01 01 J — J Trouser zippers • Iron a fold into the seam allowance on the zipper seam ensuring that the overlap pro trudesabout4mm. • Baste the zipper under the overlapping edge so that the teeth are still visible.

Richelieu work The Creative Card No. “7” is an applique and Richelieu card. The appliqué motifs are marked with an A in the motif list. If you wish to embroider a Richelieu motif these patterns can also be embroidered without Richelieu effect, i.e. the fabric pieces are not cut out of the spaces. Select a Richelieu pattern, e.g. pattern No. 6 and embroider it in one or more colours onto your fabric. After embroidering. the segments which are surrounded by the zigzag stitch can be cut out if desired. I b.
1 2 13 4J 5j 6 7 Appliqué with the embroidery motifs It is also possible to embroider appliqué with this card. Including a piece of coloured material lends profile to the pattern. Beautiful coloured effects can be achieved. Floral motifs can be particularly attractive if you use cellular fabrics or fine organza. 8 9 0 Select pattern No. 1 from this card for example. Embroider the pattern.
Embroidering thin fabrics If you wish to embroider on very fine and thin materials sLich as chiffon, organza or silk, we recommend reinforcing the material with a textile hardener from PFAFF; The fabric must be hardened because you cannot back the material with an embroidery fleece (this would show through the thin fabric) Therefore, repeat the procedure until the fabric is strong e iou g h. 88 Then fit the fabric tightly into the frame.
I A 9XXXJ(XXr.l — -,-. d Embroidering frotté You can even embroider on tine loop fabrics such as frottO or velvet with the Creative. Both the maxi stitches and the embroidery motifs of the embro idery unit can be used for this purpose. However, we recommend using embroidery fleece and Avalon (available from your Pfaff dealer).
s)cxxxj1 If the frottO is too thick to fit into the frame, fit a piece of embroidery fleece into the frame and stick the frotté fabric onto it with a glue pen. Embroidering with the embroidery unit If you wish to embroider motifs on frotte or velvet with the embroidery unit, we recommend using embroidery fleece and Avalon. Lay the Avalon on top of and the embroidery fleece underneath the frotté fabric and fit the three layers into the frame. IL I Now the Avalon can be pinned onto the frotté fabnc.
Embroiclering small pieces of fabric If you want to embroider on a small piece of fabric, for example a pocket or the corner of a napkin but you cannot fit all the fabric into the frame, we recommend tacking the piece of fabric onto embroidery fleece with large stitches. Now you can fit the part into the frame and embroider it. Remove the embroidery fleece when you have finished em broideri ng. a.
\/ _if. j. Combining motifs to form a border Many motifs can be used to make a border. Cut a ong strip of fabric. Draw a line down the middle of the fabric with disappearing chalk or disappearing magic marker. Lay embroidery fleece under the fabric and fit both phes into the frame. Take care to ensLire that the line you have drawn runs parallel to the embroidery Seiect a pattern, ag. pattern 1 6 from card 1 and rotate the pattern 90 It is now displayed lengt hwise. Embroider the pattern onto the fabric.
Remove the fabric from the frame and measure the length of the pattern. Halve this length. This shows you where the middle of the pattern is. Now mark the middle of the fabric with a dot This is very important because the placing and moving of a pattern in the embroidery frame is always based around the middle of the pattern. When you begin to sew the machine skips back to the pattern start automatically. Now fit the fabric into the frame again so that the line is parallel to the frame.
Combining patterns to form a large motif In this example the pattern has been embroidered four times. Mark a large cross on the fabric. Select pattern No. 1 2 from card 2 and fit the fabric and the embroidery fleece into the frame so that the lines are parallel to the embroidery frame. The cross should be on the upper edge of the frame. Select ‘mono” and rotate the pattern 27O. The length and width of the pattern is shown in the display.
Remove the fabric from the frame and fit it again. Mark the middle of the pattern on the fabric and position the needle above the marking with keys &v4 Using the pattern start key you can return to the beginning of the pattern. This allows you to check if the second pattern borders on the first. Now embroider the second pattern. . Remove the fabric from the frame again and place the pattern between the two embroidered motifs. For the fourth pattern proceed as for the previous pattern.
,2 3 4 5 info 7 6 menu Embroidering a word sequence Always use the larger frame when embroiclering words. this allows you to embroider at least three letters (depending on letter Size>. You can embroider in two ways: 1. Connecting individual letters 2. Programming word segments into the Mmemory and then embroidering them (see pattern combinations instrLlctions for use 7570 page 56 + 57> 96 8 9 o.k. 0 )[ I, Always embroider the desired word onto a piece of waste material first.
Before beginning to embroider you can go through the embroidery pattern with the key (see instruction manual page 23) and correct the position of the word or letter if necessary. When combining word sections always ensure that the position, height and distance to the previous word segment is the same. Now you can embroider the desired word onto your fabric without any problems.
ir xsssrxx NXM< L Maxi pattern combinations from a card With the maxi patterns on the maxi design cards available you can embroider combined borders easily. Example: The cross stitch motif above can be embroidered very attractively by mirroring it once in the lengthwise axis (lengthwise mirroring 1 9) and once in the lateral axis (pattern mirror 1 7). This gives you numerous variations. Many maxi motifs can be combined in this way. L - )c).ç L Tip: On coarse fabrics use Avalon.
Maxi pattern combinations from a card Attach the piece of leather which is to be embro idered onto embroidery fleece with a glue pen or textile adhesive. Now fit the fabric with the embroidery fleece into the embroidery frame and click it into the embro idery unit If the leather is too thick to be fitted into the frame, only fit the fleece into the embroidery frame and lay the extra leather over the embroidery unit so that it Take care to ensure that the leather is stuck down flat.

Sticking on embroidered motifs On material pieces which you would like to embro ider but which cannot be fitted into the embroidery’ frame, you can embroider the motif and then stick it onto the material. Proceed as follows: Fit a layer of embroidery fleece and a layer of thermogauze (thermogauze on top) into the embro idery frame. Click the frame into place. Filled, closed patterns such as the teddy bear are particu larly suitable. Embroider the pattern. Then remove the excess embroidery fleece.
