How a

Mact.ine

Functions

Household sewing machines all make

the

conventional lockstitch.

This

type

stitch consists

on upper (needle)

and

a lower (bobbin) thread locked together·

the material being stitched. The lock

threads

pulled to the middle

the fabric so

that

the seam has the same

appearance

top

and

bottom.

Every sewing machine designed to produce this type

stitch must hove

the

following component ports

and

assemblies:

a needle

a sewing hook, complete with bobbin

case

and

any lockstitch sewing machine)
