If Stitches Appear Distorted
Stitches can appear distorted on the fabric if you are “pushing” or “pulling” the fabric as you sew. Just
let the feed dogs (or feed teeth) do the job of drawing the fabric along under the foot.
Another reason stitches could appear distorted is if the incorrect presser foot is used. For example,
dense stitches usually require the use of either a Satin Foot or Open Toe Foot, so that the stitching can
pass freely underneath. If the regular, All-Purpose Foot is used for dense stitching, stitches could get
“stuck” under the foot. Just switch to a presser foot more appropriate for these types of stitches.
