Accessories

Check that the following items are provided. If anything

is missing or damaged, contact your authorized dealer

or Brother Customer Service.

• Border embroidery frame

Since the sewing area can easily be changed

when the border embroidery frame is used,

repeated patterns can be sewn simply by sliding

the fabric. An area of 10 cm × 18 cm (approx.

4 inches × 7 inches) can be embroidered.

• Embroidery sheet

This embroidery sheet is for the border

embroidery frame. It is used to position the fabric

after the embroidering location is determined.

• Operation manual (this guide)

Embroidering with the Border

Embroidery Frame

Since the fabric can easily be repositioned and

rehooped if the border embroidery frame is used, this

frame is useful for embroidering repeated patterns

while sliding the fabric. An added feature of this

frame is that the pressure applied by the upper and

lower frames does not leave an indentation in the

fabric. An area of 10 cm × 18 cm (approx. 4 inches ×

7 inches) can be embroidered.

■Sample Projects Using the Border

Embroidery Frame

We recommend using the border embroidery frame

when embroidery repeated patterns at the edges of

items such as curtains, chair covers, bed covers,

tablecloths and blankets.

CAUTION

• Do not leave the border embroidery frame within

the reach of children, otherwise injuries may result.

Note

• When the border embroidery frame is not being

used, unlock it before storing it.

■Selecting a Pattern

bCombine the patterns and use the border

function to repeat the pattern.

cPress .

dFrom the embroidery frame display settings,

select one of the embroidery frame displays

for the border embroidery frame.

embroidery frames.

• For details on the border function, refer to

“Designing Repeated Patterns” in chapter 6 of the

aligned visually can be embroidered cleanly without

the thread mark.

added according to the direction that the embroidery

is repeated.
