Before you use the zigzag stitch, sew a few straight stitches to reinforce the stitching. TIPS FOR ZIGZAG STITCHES For a better zigzag stitch, the upper thread tension must be lower than for straight stitches. The upper thread should be slightly visible on the underside of the fabric.

If you are sewing very light or transparent fabrics, use a transparent nylon thread. Fit the guiding plate or use the blind stitch foot. The straight stitches should be on the hem, and only the points of the zigzag stitches should extend into the upper fold of the fabric. Remove the fabric from the machine and straighten it out. The folded-out fabric now has a blind-hem. Note: You can adjust the edge guide to the crease line of the outer fabric by turning the screw of the foot.
