Threading Your Quilter's Pro

Your Quilter's Pro Deluxe is capable of sewing with many types of threads. One thing to keep in
mind is this machine is an industrial machine so very light threads will be harder to use that the more
traditional machine quilting threads. Use of the other threads is alright as long as you adjust the
tension and slow down. These machines are test sewn with Superior King Tut thread which has a
long staple and is a machine quilting thread. When we are at quilt shows we use the King Tut on top
with a Sofine on the bottom. The reason for this is two threads of equal size will ride on top of each
other and fight to interlock. When using a smaller thread in the bobbin you can get more thread on the
bobbin and the threads will interlock faster and with less fighting as the smaller thread will nestle right
down into the twist of the larger threat creating a better locking of the stitches.
Lets get started threading the machine:
Step 1: Place a cone of thread on the thread holder.
Step 2: Pull the thread through eyelet above the cone
of thread. Make sure to use the eyelet directly above the
cone of thread. See figure 48
