Sewing Basting Stitches

The basting stitch is suitable for basting several layers of fabric. When sewing basting stitches, it is recommended to use a fine darning thread. The darning thread is easier to remove.

  1. Fit the straight stitch foot.
  2. Set the maximum stitch length.

Tip

Pin the fabric layers at a right angle to basting direction to prevent the layers from slipping.
