14T967DC Serger/Overlock Workbook |
|
|
This workbook has been created as a tool for learning the various
stitch types on the Quantumlock® 14T967DC serger/overlock machine.
It is very comprehensive and totals 231 pages. For this reason, it
has been divided into fourteen individual sections which can be
downloaded and printed separately. Each section focuses on a
particular stitch type covering machine set-up and threading
directions, and contains photos and definitions on how and where the
stitch can be used, as well as suggestions for successful stitch
formation. We hope the workbook will enable you to use your
Quantumlock® 14T967DC to its full capacity.
In order to view and print the workbook sections,
you will need the Adobe® Reader® — free software for viewing and
printing Portable Document Format (PDF) files.
