DARNING PLATE
MULTI ZIG-ZAG STITCHING
For some sewing techniques such as sewing on buttons, the Darning Plate must be used.
The Darning Plate prevents the feed dogs from coming in contact with the fabric, so that
the fabric doesn't feed through.
To attach the Darning Plate, line it up with the holes on the needle plate, then push down to
snap it in place. Be sure it is positioned so that the hole in the Darning Plate lines up with
the opening for the needle on the needle plate.
Turn the hand wheel toward you slowly, to ensure that the needle clears the hole in the
Darning Plate.
Remove the Darning Plate to return to normal sewing.
Sewing on a Button
Set the machine for Stitch #8 or #9, depending on the distance between the holes of the button.
Position the fabric and button under the presser foot.
Lower the presser foot.
Turn the handwheel to make sure the needle clears both left and right holes of the button.
Note: It may be necessary to change to a different zig-zag stitch selection until you find
the one that is appropriate for the button. To do so, raise the needle out of the fabric,
select the new stitch. Lower the presser foot and then turn the handwheel to see if it clears
the holes of the button.
Once you have determined the correct zig-zag stitch setting for the button, sew 10 stitches.
If a button shank is required, place a needle on top of the button and sew over the top of it,
as shown.
When finished, pull both threads to the backside of the fabric using a hand needle, then tie
together to secure.

The multi-stitch zig-zag is a very versatile stitch. Use it to mend, insert elastic or simply
as a decorative embellishment.
Mending a Tear
Set the machine for Stitch 12 and attach the Satin Foot.
Trim any loose threads from the torn area.
For reinforcement of the torn area, place an underlay of interfacing or small fabric scrap
(similar fabric type and color) behind the tear.
Working from the right side, bring the edges of the tear together and then sew.
Use a hand sewing needle to pull the threads to the wrong side, then tie and clip.
Trim away the excess underlay.
Elastic Insertion
Elastic is easily applied with the multi-stitch zig-zag. The elasticity of this stitch prevents
the stitches from breaking when the elastic is stretched.
Set the machine for Stitch 12 and attach the Satin Foot.
If repairing a garment with broken elastic, first remove the old elastic from the garment,
then press.Divide both the elastic and the area of the garment where the elastic will be
sewn, into quarters. Place a pin at the quarter markings on both the elastic and the garment.
Gently pull the elastic to cove the fabric evenly as you sew.
