Decorative sewing and embroidery techniques
Patchwork quilt
Patchwork and quilting are traditional
handicraft techniques which were originally
used by North American pioneer women to
make use of left-over fabric. Over the years it
has developed into a creative hobby.
Traditionally patchwork was sewn by hand.
Today your creative ideas can be realized in
a much shorter time with your select sewing
machine.
A patchwork quilt consists of three layers
of fabric, two layers of fabric with a layer of
batting sandwiched between. Many pieces of
fabric are joined together in patterns to form
the top layer of the quilt. This is tacked to a
middle layer of polyester or cotton batting and
a backing layer.
The quilt and patchwork foot (special
accessory – see page 63) is particularly
helpful for sewing patchwork and quilting. The
distance of the needle to the outer edge of the
foot is 1/4 inch (6 mm) and 1/8 inch (3 mm) to
the inner edge.
And this is how it’s done:
• Cut the pieces necessary for your quilt top,
making sure to include a seam allowance of
1/4 inch (6 mm).
• Sew the pieces together as required by the
block chosen. These squares will then be
sewn together and will form the top of the
quilt.
• Baste the fi nished top of the quilt onto the
batting and the bottom quilt layer.
• Use your Pfaff select model to sew all
layers together. Work from the inside of
the quilt out. Use a straight stitch for long
seams. Use stitches such as FG or L stretch
(select 1540) to add a decorative touch.
Experiment with other stitches on a scrap of
fabric. Contact your Pfaff dealer, library, or
bookstore for more information on quilting.
