It does have some pre-programmed basic shapes that you could use to creatively get a straight stitch for a short length (4"), but you would also need to contrive to hoop whatever it is that you want to straight stitch on.įor example, if you want to do a hem, you would maybe hoop some soluble or tearaway stabilizer along with your pre-pressed fabric for hemming, and then stitch a part of a straight stitch rectangle to complete 4" of hem, then move your fabric and re-hoop to complete the next 4".

It will only stitch with and embroidery hoop attached. Hi Marjorie, I don't remember what is in the box for this machine as far as foot options (I think there might be an extra embroidery foot), but I can tell you it doesn't stitch straight the same way a sewing machine does.
