QUILTING

A quilt usually consists of three layers; two layers
of fabric with a layer of batting sandwiched
between.

Piecing a Quilt Block

Select Straight Stitch (01). Snap on the Quilter's
1/4" Piecing Foot. Align the edges of the two
fabric pieces with the right hand edge of the
foot.

Handlook Quilting Stitch

Snap on Utility Foot A. Select the Handlook
Quilting Stitch (08). Thread the top with
transparent thread, and the bobbin with 40wt.
rayon thread. Increase the thread tension to 7,
to bring the bobbin thread to the top side of the
fabric, creating a handlook stitch. Draw or mark
the desired shape on your fabric. Sandwich the
marked fabric with batting and backing fabric.
Stitch around the marked shape.
Appliqué Quilting
Select Applique Stitch (09). Thread with
decorative or cotton thread on top and cotton
thread in the bobbin. Cut the desired shape from
applique fabric and place on quilt block fabric.
Stitch along the outer edge of the applique so
that the straight stitch follows the outer edge
of the applique, and the side movement of the
stitch sews onto the applique.
