With program 08 you can baste a garment before
trying it on. When you press the toot control the
machine will only make one stitch. For each further
stitch you have to press the foot control each time.
— Lower the bottom feed and disengage the topfeed.
— Place the fabric under the sewing loot
— Sew one stitch, then pull the fabric to the rear by
the required amount
— Repeat this as many times as you need to finish
the work.
TIP: To prevent the material plies from shifting, insert
dress pins crosswise to the basting dirction. Lightfabrics are easier to baste with long straight stitches
(6 mm). Then you do not need to lower the bottom
feed.
LLzi LL1Straight stitch
Program 00 is the basic straight stitch with middle
needle position. The stitch length can be increased
up to 6 mm as required.
Some sewing jobs can be done easier by changing
the needle position, e.g. top-stitching a collar or
sewing in a zip fastener. To change the needle
position, use program 02. Before you change its
position, always make sure the needle is at its highest
point. You can set up to 1 3 different needle positi
ens with slide key (6). Program 01 is a straight stitch
with left needle position that cannot be changed.

This program is used for sewing aH seams where
great strength is needed, e.g. inside trouser seams
and sleeve seams. The heavier thr’ fabric, the longer
the stitch length you need.
Program 06 can be lengthened up to 4.5 mm, and
program 07 up to 6 nni. This is why progi am 07 at
the longest stitch length is suitable for fancy tup
sutching edges for lapels on classic juckets and coats.
TIP: If you wish to top stitch a collar edge with
program 07, use the functions “needle down” and
“single pattern”. Do not press the single pattern key
until yoi i reach the last stitch before the corner, tIi
machine thus stops after the stitch, and the needle
stays iii the material. Now toni the fabric; the “sir igle

or knit and other stretch materials the PFAFFelectronic 6250 offers a selection of overlock
ditl cs. These join two plies of fabric and serge
tlu’ni in one operation They have a higher elasticity
than usual stitches, they are more durable, and you

TIP: When you sew overfock scorns, we recommend
you use blind stitch foot No 3. It guides th fabric
better and prevents tunneling of the scant at wider

Httonhoes
lh PFAFF eletronic 6250 offers you diftuient
buttonhole sewing programs to choose from.
[)t’pending on the material and type of work, you can
choose between three different buttonhole programs.
Buttonholes are generally sewn onto a piece of
doubled fabric. However, for some mateiials, eg. silk,
organza and viscous fabric, it is necessary to use a
stabilizer to prevent the material from puckering
during sewing.
To produce beautiful seams, good embroidering or
darning threads are ideally suitable.
Mark the starting point ot the buttonhole either with a
magic pen or di Uss pin, and always sew a sai nple
buttonhole first
Note: Before starhng any buttonhole, always push the
guide of the buttonhole foot fully to the front, in. sothat the ied arrow is at the first red mark.

Compensating the buttonhole seam length with
the balance key (8)
jA further correction possibility is offered by the
balance key. With this you can also correct uneqUally
long buttonhole seams.
If the left seam is too short (Fig. a) push the slide key
to the right The farther you move the slide key right.
the more reverse stitches the machine sews, i.e. the
left seam will automatically be made longer.
If the left seam is too long (Fig. b). push the slide key
to the left The farther you move the slide key left the
fewer reverse stitches the machine sews, i.e. the left
seam will automdtically be made shorter.
Programmable linen buttonholes
In program 71 you can determine the length, weflh
and density of the buttonhole yourself,
— Push the buttonhole slide fully to the front.
— Sew the righthand seam at the required length
— Press the ‘buttonhole’ key (3). Now the madiiiw
sews the first bartack and the second buttoilllol4
seam. Shortly before the second bartack thi
machine sews autoanitically slower.
— As soon as the two buttonhole seams are Hi
same length, press key (3) again. The macbite
now sews the second buttonhole seam and
secures it autotnaticall.
The buttonhole length is now stored. All fuifi ii
buttonholes are now sewn automatically at Us

Vecorative stitches
In cnhdnce your own home textiles or garments the
PFAFF electronic 6250 offers you a whole host of
li icy- and decorative stitches to choose from. You
can produce even greater embroidery variations by
selecting different combinations, colours or sizes.
For embroidery work we recommend using special
embroidery threads which are available from your
Ptaff dealer.
For the parts to be embroidered you should either
use an iron-on or tear away stabilizer. This prevents
the material from tunneling or puckering. You can
mark out the embroidery pattern with a magic pen
or marking chalk. These lines will dissolve after
a few hours or can be ironed away. The following
recommendations apply to all embroidery
work:

Embroidering leather
With the PFAFF electronic 6250 you can embroider
leather with no problem at all.
Since leather stretches easily, you should use an irore
on backing or place two layers of stabilizer under it.
The stitch length should not be set too short, because
leather tears between stitch holes easily, too.
Embroidering leather can he made even easier by
using a teflon sewing foot The teflon covering
allows the foot to slide easily over the leather.Depending on the thickness of tile leithei and
thread, we reconu nend usa ig a special needle or a
needle with a large eye (1 30 N)
Do not forget that uriruelled scm s show up on
leather.
This is the way to do it:
— Apply ironon or tear away stabilizer as an
underlay.
— Embroider program 62 (extended) over the centre
of the belt
Sew the dots with program 64 (do not forget the
single pattern ku)
— Fit the cording foot and over stitch the gimp
thread with program 51 (reduced in stitch width
and density).
— Finally, embroider tire triangular border parallel to
the cordiig seam with program 61.
TIP: Leave enough space in the embroidery for the
eyelets which ire punched in later.

— Place a piece of water stabilizer on the fabric.
— Tauten the part in an embroidery hoop and
embroider it with program 50. Do not forget to
use the darning position.
— Knot the threads and pull off the stabilizer. (Any
waste is dissolved in water).
TIP: If ou sew fast but move the material slowly, the
stitches will be made dense.
Block capitals are a little easier to embroider TIm
feed dog does not need to be lowered, i.e. no hue
hand guiding is required. All you have to do is stitch
along the marked lines using program 50.
— Apply iron-on backing or place stabilizer undui
neath.
— Mat k the monograri i on the fabric.
— Now embroider the niarked lines with proqi in
50.
Monograms
No matter whether you work on terry cloth or woven
fabric, with the darning foot and program 50 you can
monogram any initials of your own design.
Freehand guiding, however, needs a little prdctice in
the beginning.
— Transfer the initials with the magic pen to the part
to be embroidered.
— Lower the feed dog and insert the darning foot
On terry cloth the monogram must first be pre sewn
with narrow zigzag stitches and then oversewii with
a wider zigzag stitch. This makes sure the terry cloth
loops are properly covered.

also make top-stitch seams.
Using the twin needle you can put the professional
touch to hems on stretch materials, such as I shirt:
knitted articles or cycling shorts, both quickly andeasily. Twin needles are available in different widtleThe most common is 4 mm. Do not forget to ie
only jersey needles for stretch fabrics.
To thread the twin needle please refer to page bi

Gathering with elastic threads
Gathering sleeves or waist seams is no pioblem at all
with elastic threads. The elastic thread must not be
wound onto the bobbin.
— Mark the first gathering seam on the reverse side
of the fabric.
— Make a few starting stitches using piograni 24,
then leave the needle down in tee fabric. The
needle must be at the middle of the sewing foot.
Raise the sewing foot and place the elastic thread
around the needle.
Lower the sewing foot again and sew a few more
stitches, but do not pui1 the ends of the elastic

from then on you determine the amount of gather
by the amount you pull on the elastic thread.
After sewing you can still change the amount of

Sewing on patches
The best way to darn larger holes is to cover the
Idamaged area with a piece of new material.
— Baste the piece of new material onto the darna
Iged area from the face side.
Over-stitch its edges with elastic stitch.
INow cut hack the damaged material up to the
seam on the reverse side.
liP: ti order to turn at the corners ntore easily, use
I ‘needle down” function.
Darning tears
For tears, frayed edges or smaller holes it is easier to
place a piece of material on the underside of the
fabric. This strengthens the fabric and provides a
much better darn.— Place a piece of material on the underside of tho
fabric. The piece must always be a little bigger
than the damaged area.— Now over-stitch the damaged area by the 004 jtII
of the tear.
— Cut back the material on the underside c)ose lo

Place the zipper under the sewing foot so that theteeth run at the side of the foot. Using program02, you can set the needle at the requiredposition.
— Sew in halt of the zipper, leave the needle in thematerial, raise the sewing foot and close thezipper.
Now you can sew the rest of the seam to the endof the zipper and stitch the crosswise seam.
Inserting zippers concealed on both sides
— Engage the zipper toot to the right side.
Sewing in zippers
There are different ways to sew in zippers. For skirtswe recommend inserting the zipper concealed onboth sides, and for men’s or ladies’ slacks concealedon one side. Different types of zippers are available inshops and stores. For firm materials, such as jeans,we recommend metal zippers. and plastic zippers forall other materials.
For all types of zippers it is important to sew right upclose to the teeth of the zipper. This is why the zipperfoot can be engaged iii the foot holder to the left orright, depending on the method of insertion.
U:ing one of the 1 3 needle positions, you can alsoilL the needle so that it enters close to the edge oflit’ zipper teeth. If the sewing foot is engaged on the
mjla side, the needle position must only be changedto the right. lIthe foot is engaged left, the needlemu t only be moved to the left.

This very artistic form of bar- and eyelet embroidery iseasy to make with your sewing machine.
— Transfer your pattern onto the face side of thefabric using the magic pen.
Then place two plies of water soluble stabilizerunder the area to be embroidered and tauten thefabric and backing in an embroidery hoop.
To make the embroidery more stable, sew aroundall contours double in straitgh stitch (at about 1mm stitch length>.
After that, carefully cut out the fabric from theareas that will form the cutouts at about 2 mmalong their contours, but do not cut away thebacking material.
Embroider the contours with a dense zigzag stitch.
The backing material provides this part of thework with much more shape and stability.
Finally, all you have to do is dissolve the stabilizerin water, and your piece of individually madenibroidery is ready.
Linen embroidering is a very well-known and populartechnique which in earlier times was widely used inbed- and table linen production.
Due to its simple production and exquisiteappearance, linen embroidery is rapidly in-creasing inpopularity. More and more variants are created withdifferent stitches and combinations of them.
— Transfer your pattern, using the magic pen, to theface side of the fabric.
— Iron on fabric backing or use tear-away stabilizeras an underlay.
— Embroider your pattern with programs of yourchoice. It is recommended to use the singlepattern” and “needle down” keys for this.
— Knot the threads on the reverse side and remov’the silk paper.

Traditional eyelet embroidery which long ago had to
be made laboriously by hand can be made quite
easily with the help of an eyeletting plate (special
accessory).
This is very effective on blouses, bed- or table linen.
Practically all stitch types of the PFAFF electronic
6250 are sutiable for this: zigzag stitch blind stitch,
elastic stitch or fancy stitches.
For classic eyelet embroidery, program 1 2 is very
suitable. Set the needle at its left position, select the
stitch width, and the machine stitches evenly around
the cut-in portion.
— Set the presser bar lifter at the darning position.
— Lower teed dog.

smooth side, of the fusible backing fabric.Remember that any letters or numbers have to bedrawn in mirrored fashion.Now iron the backing fabric onto the appliquématcnal. Cut the motif out and pull the paper off.t’ so and iron on the appliqué parts on the baseo.ir.oriil.

Gathering foot
Beautiful gathering effects, e.g. on children’s wear or
curtains, can be made quickly and easily with the
gathering foot. This eliminates gathering by hand.
— Engage the gathering foot by hooking the rear bar
ofthe foot into the i-ear groove of the foot holder.
Push the foot upwards until it snaps into the front
bar.
— Place the fabric to be gathered under the sewing
foot, and the gather-free fabric from the top
through the foot cutout The tabric parts lie face
side to face side.
— During stitching you have to pull the top fabric a
little. The harder you pull, the greater the
gathering effect you achieve.
Be sure you guide the fabric edges evenly through
the toot
Disengage the gathering foot by pushing it down
at the front, and take it out to the back over the
rove of the sewing foot holder.

Cording footCording is a technique in which pearl thread or a finecord is over-stitched to produce a purl seam. Withthis you can obtain an effect similar to braiding.Appliques can also be made more impressive by thisseam.
— Mark the required motif on the fabric, avoiding tootight curves or angles if possible.
— Engage the cording foot and place the tillingthread in one of the front grooves of the foot, thenplace the filling thread in the back groove underthe foot shoe.
New over-stitch the filling thread with narrow and1lliIse zigzag stitches. Now you have made a soellcd purl seam.
HP ‘ a can also obtain a special effect by overi i i edium pearl thread with a thread of a

Fringe footWith this special foot for loop embroidery you canproduce fantastic effects in no time.
— Mark out any pattern you wish with the magicpen.
— Use a stabilizer and engage the fringe foot
— Embroider the motif, row by row, For circles yenhave to work from the outside inward.
— For thicker threads you may have to choose alonger stitch length; it is best to sew a test anfirst
— When you have finished, pull the work out ot ilmachine carefully, because if you pull too ti’,l
will pull the last loops tight
— Knot the threads on the reverse side
