Echo Quilting Using the Free Motion
Echo Quilting Foot “E”
Sewing quilting lines at equal distances around a
motif is called echo quilting. The quilting lines,
which appear as ripples echoing away from the
motif, are the distinguishing characteristic of this
quilting style. Use the free motion echo quilting foot
“E” for echo quilting. Using the measurement on the
presser foot as a guide, sew around the motif at a
fixed interval. We recommend attaching the foot
controller and sewing at a consistent speed.

CAUTION
With free motion quilting, control the feeding
speed of the fabric to match the sewing speed.
If the fabric is moved faster than the sewing
speed, the needle may break or other damage
may result.
Memo
When starting to sew, the internal sensor
detects the thickness of the fabric, and the
quilting foot is raised to the height specified
in the machine settings screen. Press to
display “Free Motion Foot Height” of the
settings screen (page 29). Touch the
number to select the height that the quilting
foot is raised above the fabric. Increase the
setting, for example, when sewing very soft
fabric, so that it is easier to sew.
In order to sew with a balanced tension, it
may be necessary to adjust the upper
thread tension (page 87). Test with a sample
piece of quilting fabric.
