VIDEO TUTORIAL
BEFORE STARTING
The packaging of the stick seam guide contains 2 guides and a transparent measurement sheet. You can connect the 2 guides to get one long guide or use them separately. The enclosed measurement sheet has 6 holes to insert your needle and check the distance from your needle to the fabric’s edge.

Before every use: Wipe away dust from your machine bed.
