Sewing
Quilting
A quilt usually consists of three layers, two layers
of fabric with a layer of batting sandwiched
between.
To sew three layers together, you have a wide
variety of stitches and techniques to choose from.
Stitch-in-the-Ditch
Use the Fancy stitch foot 1A with IDT™ system.
Stitching in the ditch means using the guide on the
presser foot to follow the seams in the quilt blocks.
Begin by pin basting your quilt through all layers
with safety pins, starting from the center of your
quilt and working out. Place a pin every 6-8 inches
(15-20 cm).
Note: You can also use the optional Stitch-in-Ditch w
IDT™ system presser foot #820 925- 096.
Crazy quilt stitching
Embellish your quilt with decorative stitches. The
stitches can be sewn in a coordinating or contrasting
color. Decorative threads like rayon embroidery or
heavy cotton threads are sometimes used.
Free-motion stippling
Free-motion stippling not only keeps the top,
batting and backing together, but it also adds
texture and interest to your quilt.
Free-motion stippling is done with the feed
dogs lowered. You move the fabric manually to
determine the stitch length.
1. Set your sewing machine for stippling by
selecting the direct selection straight stitch no
0.
2. Attach the optional Open Toe Free-Motion foot
#820 988-096.
3. Lower the feed dogs.
4. Pin baste your quilt layers and prepare your
quilt as explained under Stitch-in-the-Ditch
above.
Tip! Practice stippling on scraps of fabric and batting.
Sewing with a constant speed will help to keep the
stitches even.
5. Begin near the center of your quilt. Take one
stitch and pull the bobbin thread to the top of
the quilt. Take a few stitches right next to one
another to lock the threads.
6. Now move the quilt so that your stitching
creates swirls. The stitching should not cross
over itself, and should travel in a meandering
motion.
Handlook quilting
1. Baste the completed quilt top to the batting and
backing.
2. Thread the needle with an invisible
(mono lament) thread. Use contrasting or
matching rayon or cotton thread in the bobbin.
3. Select the handlook quilt stitch, pattern
selection no 17, and increase the needle thread
tension to 8-9.
4. Snap on the recommended foot shown in the
sewing recommendations view.
5. Engage the IDT™ system.
6. When you sew the stitch you should only see
your bobbin thread. Fine adjust the needle
thread tension as needed to produce the
desired effect.
