Keep in mind you really do not want to be sewing satin stitches that  
are 1/4' long or wider...
it just won't look good. Thread is very easily pulled out if it hooks  
on something, and you will
also get real nervous listening to the Amaya 'thump' back and  
forth... so use one of the fills
or the split element...stir clear of stitch length over 1/4"
