The quilt stitches add a three dimensional effect
when outlining designs.
Place monofilament (clear invisible) thread in the
needle and 60 weight cotton thread on the bobbin
(color matches quilt back).
Use a washable fabric marker to draw design lines
on quilt top. Place batting (wadding) between quilt
top and backing fabric. Sew over design lines.
NOTE: Upper tension may need to be increased
depending on thickness of batting/wadding.
