10.4 Guiding the quilt work freely
Quilt gloves with rubber fingertips (optional accessory) will help when guiding the fabric.
It is recommended to use the slide-on table and the Free Hand System. With free-motion quilting, it is of
advantage to quilt from the center outwards and to guide the fabric using smooth, round movements to
form the design of your choice. Free-motion quilting and darning are based on the same free-motion
principles.
With stipple quilting, entire surfaces of the fabric are filled with quilt stitches. The single lines of stitching are
rounded and never cross one another.
Prerequisite:
• The top layer, the batting and the backing are pinned together or basted.
• The feed dog is lowered.
• The Darning foot No. 9 (optional accessory) is attached.
> Touch the icon «Practical stitches».
– The Straight stitch No. 1 is selected automatically.
> Adjust the upper thread tension and the balance to the sewing project if necessary.
> Press the foot control or the button «Start/Stop» to start the machine.
> Hold both hands close to the presser foot like an embroidery hoop to guide the fabric.
> If the thread is lying on top of the fabric, slow down the movement.
