Quilt Stitch
The quilt stitch adds a three dimensional effect when
outlining designs.
Place monofilament (clear invisible) thread in the needle
and 60 weight cotton thread on the bobbin (color
matches quilt back).
You might need to increase needle tension to 6.
Use a washable fabric marker to draw design lines on
quilt top. Place batting (wadding) between quilt top and
backing fabric. Sew over design lines.
