Many
geometric pieces
of
fabric are
joined
together
in
continually
changing 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 1/4 inch
quilt
and
patchwork foot is particularly
suitable
for joining
your
pieces
of
fabric. The clearance between
the
needle
and
the outer
edge
of the foot is 1/4” (6 mm)
and
between the
needle and the inner
edge
of
the foot
1/8”
(3
mm).

Attach
the 1/4
inch quilt
and patchwork foot.
• Sew
together
your pieces of fabric
using program 1. For
a
seam
allowance
of
1/4”
guide
your fabric along the
outer
edge of the foot. For
a
seam
allowance of 1/8”
guide
your
fabric along
the inner
edge
of the foot.

In
traditional
quilting
the
three layers
of fabric are joined
with small
hand
stitches.
This hand-stitched
look can
be
accomplished
faster
and
easier with
the sewing machine.
• Use
invisible
(monofilament)
thread in the needle.
Use
a contrast or
complementary polyester
or cotton thread
in the bobbin.
• Set the needle thread
tension
to 7-9. Loosen the bobbin
thread tension approximately
1/4 turn
counterclockwise
to allow the needle
thread to pull the bobbin
thread
to
the top side of your
work. You may find it beneficial
to
purchase
a second
bobbin
case
for working
with
specialty
techniques
and threads.
• When you sew the stitch
on the three layers of
your quilt, you should only
see
the triple stitch of
your bobbin thread. The
intermediate stitch disappears
and thus produces a hand-stitched
appearance.
Adjust
your needle and bobbin
thread tensions as needed
to
produce the desired effect.
