[Lady Kathleen of Olmsted]

The decrative stitches my machine does, everything is set when I put the machine in the correct mode, select the # of a stitch, and i am ready ro sew. The machine sets the tension, stitch length, and width automatically.

I use the Gutterman metallic threads for Decorative stitching with no problems. I tend to use Gutterman thread more than other brands.
